Times of Open Days
Gates open @ 10.00 hours and close @ 16:30 hours
Flight Availability:-
All seats are £65 each for a flight on DC-3/Prentice/Rapide …can be pre-booked please let us know. Twin Pioneer is going in for some work but will be available on certain dates which will be confirmed.
Engine Runs:-
One of the highlights of each day will be the engine runs of the DC-6B G-APSA and Shackleton WR963 @ 13.00 hours on each Open Day. On the winter Open Day, there will be a second engine run @ 16.00 hours under arc lights.
Please be aware that DC-6 G-APSA will retain both its KLM colour scheme and its Dutch registration of PG-TGA throughout the coming season and adds an extra incentive to see this classic prop liner in its unique colour scheme. Note also that G-ANAF now sports a fantastic new colour scheme that needs to be seen to be believed.
Please also be aware that the Shackleton does engine runs every Thursday at 13.00 hours - all are welcome to attend. It is also my intention to run small escorted photography tours of the grass area and apron, which will need to be reserved in advance. There will no charge for this facility.
So please support ClassicFlight at Air Atlantic as they continue to provide a unique opportunity to get close up and personnel with Classic Propliners. Quote “Reference CAE” when booking.
Hopefully I shall see you there.
Regards
Steve Kinder
