East Kirkby Airshow 2019

Saturday 3rd August 2019 saw the annual airshow at The Lincolnshire Aviation Centre in East Kirkby take place. This year we would witness both the Lancaster Bomber NX611 and The Mosquito HJ711 taxy together along the grass airstrip.
The day had things to see both in the air and on the ground. This video features some highlights from the 2019 East Kirkby airshow.

Love this place one of the best little airshows and captures the atmosphere of the old days of the RAF very nostalgic

[@Martinuk79]

I agree and just prooves that a little museum can do this and all these larger airfields or airshow end up being cancelled due to health and safety issues etc. Good day out and chance to see some wonderfull aircraft.

Thanks for sharing. Last time I saw the Lanc it was a gate guardian at Squires Gate airport Blackpool in 1971. Dad took me to see it and you could climb the ladder and get inside. He piloted a Lanc with PFF. Great to see the old lady come alive again.

[@Martinuk79]

You're welcome. I never tire of seeing or hearing her start her engines. Hopefully one day I will visit for either a taxi ride or a tour inside as would like to experience what it was like inside them.

Love the spitfire, w dont see many in the states

They are always great to see in the sky and the sound. Shame you don't get to see many over there.

Will Just Jane ever get airborne again

[@Martinuk79]

I think this is a time will tell situation as I know they are working to get it in an airworthy condition. I am sure the museum will let us know all about it when the time is near :)

[@AirshowUK]

nice film wish I could of gone

[@Martinuk79]

Thank you :)

[@DrivermanO]

Very good, except its a shame we didn't see the Catalina actually lift off and fly round (unless it was just a fast taxi past!)

[@Martinuk79]

Thank you. Unfortunately my battery was very low and I decided to save what power I had left for the Lancaster and Mosquito run. The little bit of footage from the Catalina was at the end when she was leaving.

[@vrosi1963]

Cant wait to see three lancs flying. I am sure the mosquito will fly someday with new airframe parts we hope ???

[@Martinuk79]

It would be nice to see the three Lancs flying but I think the Canadian one visiting the UK was sadly a one off. It would be nice to see the Mosquito fly but heard someone at the museum say she never will be able to fly again just taxi runs.

[@benhack3102]

Events and More UK the mosquito is made up of bits and pieces taken from crash sights so for example one undercarriage is from one aircraft, the gun sight another and so on.

[@YorkyOne]

@ 9.54 Not too sure these chaps are fully au fait with the principles of aeronautics. To get it flying you've got to push it FORWARDS!

[@Peter-Oxley-Modelling-Lab]

Mossie, Lanc, Lysander? What's not to like!? Great vid, thanks for sharing. 👍🏻👏🏻😃

[@Martinuk79]

Thank you Peter and you're welcome :)
