The History of Woodchurch Warbirds |

|
When Rob first saw Little Engeham Farm his first thought was - "Hmm... Nice strip of land there facing into wind for the microlight..." Little did he realise that he was standing only a few hundred yards from what used to be the Woodchurch World War 2 fighter field and that it was soon to re-echo once more to the sound of the Flying Legends. Play sound when loaded >>>> When Constructed the first strip was 600 metres and sufficient to operate a "Shadow" and Piper L21B (military Super Cub) from 1987. Then in 1989 the Robin DR400 Regent arrived. The runway was now seeming a trifle short and was lengthened to 780 metres in 1991. The Harvard Mk IVM took residence in September 1993, followed by the Mustang in March 1997, and finally the YAK C11 in March 2000 |
