About this event
We are pleased to announce a day of photography at Bruntingthorpe with 3 Lightnings which will be displayed in various cameos both on their own, and then with our wonderful group of historic re-enactors both in and outside the period correct QRA sheds that also form part of the LPG'S and USP.
There will be an Anti-Det run of one of the aircraft during the afternoon so you can experience up close the sights and sounds of one of these former QRA airframes fire up its engines and be put through the various tasks needed to allow the engineers ensure they plane is working correctly and there are no faults. You will be required to have full ear defenders so please make a note now to ensure you have yours ready for this fantastic opportunity!
This promises to be another excellent event and we look forward to seeing many of you in Leicestershire for an exciting five-hour feast of aviation photography.
