I don’t know if anyone is interested but they are having an open day, it’s being done in conjunction with Threshold Aero who I have used in the past for photography shoots, I hope there is no problem letting those who may be interested know about the event, details here. I have no connection with either company, I have just been to a few Threshold events before.

The event will showcase flying Historic Helicopters aircraft including Westland Whirlwind, Wessex Mk 5, Sea King Mk’s 3, 4, 5 & Mk 48 (Belgian Air Force SAR aircraft); Lynx Mk 7 and Westland Wasp.
Aircraft will conduct flying displays subject to weather and serviceability; including celebrations to mark 70 years of RAF Search and Rescue – and the first display of HH Lynx Mk 7. On the ground there will be static aircraft including Westland Sea Kings (Mk’s 3, 4, 5 & 48) Westland Widgeon, Westland Scout, Gazelle and many others. Static displays will afford the opportunity for closer photography and interaction with crews.
