D-Day 80 North Weald Airfield

31 May – 2 June, 2024

The event will commence at North Weald Airfield, Essex UK where a fleet of Dakotas and other period aircraft will be assembled.

Over the three-day show visitors on each day will be able to have tours of the aircraft, meet the crew, buy memorabilia, and enjoy 1940s style entertainment.
