Breighton Airfield, Yorkshire, June 2023 |
 |
| After my previous visit to Breighton in April, I returned in June for the visit by the Vintage Aircraft Club over the weekend of the 24th and 25th, and what a superb range of aircraft they brought to the aleady wonderful collection here. | |
|
The weather was warm and sunny, and the non-stop activity on the Saturday reminded me of Oshkosh. However on the Sunday the dreaded crosswind restricted flying, and I took the opportunity to explore the hangars. Some of the aircraft here also appear in my April photos. I've tried to add more photos of some that I couldn't photograph well on that visit, while some that I did get good photographs of then I've only added one or two of here. | |
