๐ง๏ธ 1940s Fly-In is Still Going Ahead! โ๏ธ๐ฌ๐ง
It wouldnโt be a proper British summer without a few rain showers, would it?
Despite the forecast, weโre delighted to confirm that the 1940s Fly-In at Leicester Aerodrome is still going ahead as planned on 6th June!
Our 1940s village is fully set up and ready to welcome visitors, with plenty to see and do throughout the day. If the weather does decide to remind us weโre in Britain, donโt worry โ we have a large marquee and plenty of sheltered areas where you can stay dry while enjoying the atmosphere.
Thereโll be live music (6-9pm), period exhibits, military vehicles, classic aircraft, afternoon tea, and all the sights and sounds of the 1940s. Whether youโre a seasoned re-enactor, aviation enthusiast, or just looking for a unique family day out, thereโs something for everyone.
So dust off your 1940s rain boots and mac, embrace the wartime spirit of carrying on regardless, and join us for a wonderful day of history, heritage, and community.
Keep Calm and Carry On โ weโll see you at Leicester Aerodrome! โโ๏ธ๐ฌ๐ง
