Flea markets in EU

Hola!

I am looking for flea markets like the Aeropuces in Paris (Aéropuces 2017 - Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace)

Is anyone aware of similar events, across Europe?
I am looking for small old maybe unserviceable instruments for decorating my office...

Cheers,
Z Nick

Yes, there are lots of them, but what kind of instruments? Instruments of torture, like the bagpipes? Medical instruments? Militaria?
Which countries do you visit?

I am interested in cockpit instruments from vintage aircraft, all around Europe, I travel rather easily...

There has been a largish one relatively local to us in previous years

Aéropuces | Gimont Aero

I have yet to hear if they will run it in 2018.

Terms to look up for the UK are 'Aerojumble' and 'Aircraft Enthusiasts Fair'. Several are listed by the Royal Aero Club: Calendar Of Events - United Kingdom

Popham is the biggest I know of. Usually May and August.

In terms of UK markets, I can vouch for the Popham aero jumble in May. Always seems to be a lot of vintage instruments, clothing, books etc on sale.

Much too old-school to have a website, but this is an Aladdin’s cave.
