In a joint venture between Biggin Hill Airport and the Biggin Hill Heritage Hangar, the 75th anniversary of the Battle of Britain will be marked by a series of flypasts on August 18. Eighteen Supermarine Spitfires and six Hawker Hurricanes will gather at the historic airfield and launch at around 1pm for a commemorative flight 75 years on from what is often regarded as the battle's 'hardest day'. Comprising three formations, the aircraft will fly over several key Battle of Britain locations before returning to Biggin Hill. It will be possible to see the aircraft at close quarters during a flightline walk.
