*Passes at certain airports will be dependent on ATC clearances at the time of arrival.

Southern tour 11th October

Amongst the places being visited on this route:
RAF Waddington, Rutland Water, North Weald Airfield, Gravesend, Herne Bay, Manston, Dover, Ashford, Dunsfold, Farnborough, Middle Wallop, Old Sarum, Bristol Airport*, Filton, Cardiff Airport*, St. Athan, Staverton Glos Airport, RAF Brize Norton*, Wellesbourne, Bruntingthorpe and Newark.
*Passes at certain airports will be dependent on ATC clearances at the time of arrival.

The crews will try their very best to pass directly over each main location. There is no guarantee of exact route following can be given due to operational conditions.


At least two more flights are intended in late October - This weekend (Oct 10th & 11th) will not see XH558’s final landing!
