After a long and successful partnership of some 30 years,
IWM Duxford and The Fighter Collection (TFC) are announcing today
that the Flying Legends air show will no longer be taking place at Duxford.


Given the financial pressures which have resulted from the coronavirus pandemic over the past few months,
IWM Duxford has been required to examine all future events and consult with key partners
to ensure that, as a charity, the organisation is able to maximise income and remain financially stable.

It was therefore mutually agreed that TFC would seek an alternative location
to host Flying Legends, which will be confirmed at a later date.

John Brown, IWM Executive Director Commerce and Operations, commented:

“The Fighter Collection will continue to be a highly valued partner at IWM Duxford
and we are delighted that its collection of amazing aircraft :!: will remain on site :!:
and continue to be displayed throughout the year.

We are confident that Flying Legends will continue with its success
and would like to thank them for entertaining audiences at IWM Duxford over the years.

We will be making some exciting changes to our own Air Show programme for next year
and look forward to sharing more details in the coming months.”
