At Home Day –
Saturday 2nd August 2025

Following the success of the On OPS – Flour Bombing event in May, Wickenby Aerodrome events team are proud to announce the next event in the calendar, our “At Home Day – Vintage & Classic Aircraft fly in”.
The “At Home Day” is a nod to the history of our aerodrome and to the days when the aircrew had a rest from operational flying and the base had the opportunity for some R&R.
We have a Merlin engine (subject to serviceability) that will perform ground runs throughout the day, just to add that authentic sound that once reverberated around our base together with visiting military vehicles and steam engines.
Our fantastic Café 12 will be serving the famous “Wickenby Crew Breakfast” during the day, together with a fantastic selection of cakes and treats.
For those flying in to the event, please PPR via our contact form on the home page.
We hope that you will be able to join us at some point throughout the day.
Very best regards
The Wickenby Events Team.
