The Squadron – a recreation of Battle of Britain buildings at North Weald Airfield has recently been acquired by new owners. Aero Legends https://www.aerolegends.co.uk/ is an established flight experience company currently operating a range of historic aircraft from airfields in Kent and Northamptonshire. Aircraft from the Aero Legends collection will be mustering at North Weald Airfield on Tuesday 4 June prior to Normandy D-Day commemorations later in the week. The company’s WWII C-3 Dakota (C-47 Sky Train) transport plane escorted by several of the company’s single and twin seat Spitfires will be leaving North Weald at approximately mid-day on 4 June for the main rendezvous with other historic aircraft before a combined parachute drop later in the week.

Aero Legends departure from North Weald and the main event are being covered by the BBC.

Aero Legends was founded in 2014 at Headcorn Aerodrome in Kent by Keith Perkins. Mr Perkins has extended an invitation to councillors to meet him and view some of the collection at The Squadron during an open morning prior to departure of the aircraft. Members will have the opportunity to see the type of aircraft Aero Legends plans to operate on a permanent basis from The Squadron and plans to extend its ‘Flight Experience’ business at North Weald.

The departure is expected to generate a high level of interest among aviation enthusiast and the Squadron will also be open to the public.

Members are invited to drop in at any time between 10am and the departure of the aircraft at approximately 12 noon.

Refreshments will be available.

Please be advised that the outside trainer that had been scheduled to take the Licensing training course on Thursday 6th June cannot now attend on that date. Therefore, the planned Licensing training will not be taking place.

It will not pose a problem for the majority of the Licensing Committee as 13 of the 15 members were trained last year. The two new members on this Committee will receive a more informal training session given by the Licensing Manager. This will be held on 6th June and they will be contacted separately to arrange this. New members must be trained in order for them to sit as members of a Licensing Sub-Committee and partake in decision making.

The Licensing Manager is still hoping to bring in an outside trainer later in the year to hold a more comprehensive refresher course for all members of the Licensing Committee.
