The Yorkshire Air Museum is situated next to Elvington airfield a few miles from the centre of York. It aims to be a living memorial to all the Allied Air Forces personnel who operated from Yorkshire during the Second World War. There are many exhibits including original WWII buildings, uniforms, vehicles and aircraft including a reconstruction of a Halifax bomber. These photographs have been taken at many visits to the museum.

Sunday 24th September 2006 was the Lincolnshire's Lancaster Association Member's day.

The Annual International Classic Aircraft Fly-in held at Breighton on 23rd and 24th July 2005. Highlights included a display by Mustangs Susy, Janie and Big Beautiful Doll. The resident Hurricane also put on a fine display. There were re-enactors, flour bombing and lots more aircraft. A finale flypast by many of the aircraft including 2 chipmunks ended Saturday on a high note.

Lots of sun and very little wind combined to make the 2004 Yorkshire Air Spectacular one of the best held. Rufforth airfield near York was the venue for this annual large model airshow on 14th and 15th of August. The B52 (sadly lost in a crash at the Nationals held a few weeks later) and Comet airliner put on a superb show.

Sunday 2nd June was the date for the Jolly June Jaunt (incorporating Annie's Way Charity fly-in). The weather was kind with sunshine and blue sky encouraging many pilots to visit with many different types of aircraft. One of the highlights was a Slepcev 'Storch', a 7/10 scale replica of the WWII Luftwaffe spotter aircraft.
