Organisers of the Royal International Air Tattoo at RAF Fairford in Gloucestershire are inviting light aircraft and larger passenger aircraft the opportunity to arrive at the airshow in style on Saturday July 14 and Sunday July 15.

Last year, around 20 charter aircraft offered passengers the chance to arrive in style from countries such as Switzerland, Denmark and Holland to a US Air Force airfield usually reserved for B-52s and B-2s.

On arrival, visitors will be processed via a purpose-built charter terminal, with full immigration and customs facilities, ensuring swift and easy access to the airshow itself.

Landing fees for light aircraft start at around £250. For details about larger aircraft and charter flights, contact the Royal International Air Tattoo's aircraft operations department at aircraft.ops@rafcte.com

The summer's Air Tattoo will be staging Europe's largest tribute to the US Air Force on its 60th anniversary and will include a rare UK-appearance by the USAF Thunderbirds display team.

Aircraft Participation Manager David Walton said: “Many people think it is not possible to fly into the show but it is. You actually get a real sense of being part of the event as you touch down centre stage on the 10,000ft runway. It a great way to see the airshow.”
