Wickenby Aerodrome is proud to support our amazing Emergency Charities.

Without support, these charities are not able to carry out their fabulous work, that provides us all with help and assistance when we need it most.
All the charities will have a presence on the day, so you can meet with their volunteers and discover more about the fantastic work they carry out within our county and wider afield.
Fly in or drive in, we’ll be pleased to see you all on the day.
The airfield and café will be open from 10:00.
All landing fees taken on the day will be donated to the charities attending.

You don’t have to super-athletic to take part in the Charity Wing Walking, just a bit adventurous! But, there are some physical constraints – so It’s best to contact the Wing Walk Company direct (these flights are not organised directly by Wickenby Aerodrome).
Please contact The Wing Walk Company if you would like any information or to book.
