Flying Legends
Ahead of the Flying Legends Air Show on Saturday 9 and Sunday 10 July, IWM Duxford has released some important safety information that it wishes to share with local residents:
• IWM Duxford takes great care to ensure that its air shows are as safe as possible for everyone involved.
• It is not safe to occupy the fields immediately south of the runway during the air show. If you do so you are putting yourself and the display pilots in harm’s way.
• In support of this, Grange Road will be closed on 9 and 10 July 2016.
• In the event of an incident it is imperative that the emergency services have clear, unhindered access to the tracks across this land.
• There is no public access to these fields at any time.
• Tickets must be bought in advance, no on the day sales are available.

It would be a one off 2 hour course covering the basics. It would cost £12.50 per person and take place sometime in the Autumn term, more than one could be arranged if there were sufficient interest. The course would be run by Tim Killick from Cambridge Medical Training. If you think that you might be interested then please complete the poll at: www.starsclub.live Read more
