IWM Duxford Air Shows and Flying Days 2022
A few notes and images from the Flying Evening last Saturday.
The atmosphere and aircraft selection for this event was amazing. Duxford is such a magical place, especially in the brilliant evening light. Unfortunately, the sun hid behind a dark cloud for much of the show. The flying displays were also a lot farther away from the crowd than I was expecting. Even with these challenges, I will absolutely try to attend again next year.
Enjoy!

Thanks everyone for continuing to share photos in this thread. I love seeing photos from Duxford, no matter the event or context. I have got to get there some day.

Following the success of the inaugural Duxford Flying Evening in 2021, the event returned for 2022 with an expanded flying programme. The evening showcased many of the Duxford based warbirds in solo displays as well as some very unusual formations and combinations. The weather was also kind with some dramatic cloudscapes framing the displays. An image slideshow and review can be found HERE.

Duxford’s Flying Finale brought the UK Display Season to a close with an exceptional line-up of aircraft old and new. Notably, the event saw Duxford host the Swiss Air Force for the first time with a display from the six Northrop F-5E Tiger IIs of Patrouille Suisse. The show also saw some superb flying from the home-based historic aircraft and the RAF Typhoon Display Team. An image slideshow and full review can be found HERE.
