Our objectives  are to:

• To preserve their historic importance, and records of service
   
• To give a wider access to the public by displaying at National Air-Shows
   
• To promote aviation and good airmanship

Our BAC Jet Provost  XW324 , Jet Provost XW325,  Jet Provost XM479 and our BAC 167 Strikemaster  G-FLYY currently follow the show circuit.

In 2008 and  2009 we  displayed at Kemble, RAF Cosford, RAF Waddington and Fairford.  Amongst many more & will continue to do so in 2010.

As a group of aircraft owners, pilots and enthusiasts of ex British military and classic civilian aircraft we got together and formed Heritage Aviation.

Missed Displays

Both John Rowley and Neil McCarthy have missed out on displaying XW324 & XM479 on a number of occasions this season. Unfortunately John was rear-ended in a traffic accident in June and as a result of his injuries he is unable  to display due to the  ‘G’ Force involved. He’s hoping to be fully recovered for next years season.
Neil on the other hand is fit and well but  an opportunity arose to replace the Rolls Royce Viper 102 engine and as the annual service was also due, the option of getting these jobs done together was taken to save time in the future.

This will give the aircraft  at least another 10 years of good safe flying securing her future.. Neil is hoping to start displaying again in September when engine testing has been completed.
