RAFA Day
Spitfire and Hurricane set to be the stars

Sunday August 16th
10am-5pm

Are you interested in aircraft? Then the place to be on Sunday August 16th is at the Norfolk and Suffolk Aviation Museum at Flixton where the Diss and District Royal Air Forces Association are organising another event.

A Spitfire and a Hurricane from the Battle of Britain Flight should be the star turns as they fly over the museum. But there is more. Also taking part will be a number of other aircraft including a search and rescue helicopter, which was the main attraction last year when RAFA’s Salute to 90 Years of the RAF attracted a crowd estimated at 3,500.

The flying programme might be affected by the weather. But there will be plenty of things to see and do on the ground. Wing Commander Ken Wallis, with his autogiro, which he flew in the James Bond film “You Only Live Twice”, will be a popular attraction. A 20-piece band from RAF Honington will be taking part and the Air Training Corps will be represented by cadets from the area, including the Lowestoft ATC band. There will also be historic vehicles in addition to the many aircraft and other exhibits which are always on show at the museum.

And the best news of all is that car parking and admission are free.

Gates open at 10am and the action continues until 5pm.
