Due to the very real threat of closure to Coventry airport the Vampire needs a new home.
If you have an airport in mind please get in touch with us using Contact us page.
The Vampire prefers a sealed runway, at least 1000 meters long. In return it will delight you with the characteristic Goblin engine noise and a beautiful silhouette in the sky. We are always happy to show visitors around the aircraft and welcome volunteers.

try Leeds Airport East (Church Fenton)

Have you tried Hawarden Airfield in North Wales? Already home to 2 strikemasters and it would be great to see you there too

Unfortunately the owners do not want jets to be based there, although we visited multiple times.

that’s so sad it’s not all about piston engines they were at the end of their fighting capacity and it was a new dawn when the early jets arrived flying into the unknown boundaries
