Chipmunk pilots and enthusiasts are invited to celebrate the 70th Anniversary of the first flight of the de Havilland Chipmunk aircraft at a Fly-In at Old Warden Aerodrome, Bedfordshire, on Sunday May 22 2016.
The airfield will be open for arrivals and departures from 08:00 until 18:00 and a celebration formation will take place between 12:00 and 13:00. It is also planned to open part of the aircraft parking area to the public between 13:00 and 14:00. Movements will still be permitted during this time to and from a segregated area.
Entry to the airfield for people arriving by surface transport will be free. Standard charges apply for entry to the Collection (museum) and Swiss Gardens. Group discounts are available. This is not a Shuttleworth event and will not be on the shuttleworth.org website; please do not phone them. There is a Shuttleworth ‘At Home’ event on Saturday, May 21.
All activities are subject to weather and aircraft availability.
60 Chipmunks are confirmed at this day!
