With clear skies, visitors were treated to spectacular air displays from the Red Arrows, the Falcons, Tornado GRF, Typhoon, Spitfire and the Dakota.

On the ground, Forces Cars Direct showed their support for the RAF with a display of new vehicles, available with their unique new car programme and FCD discounts for serving and ex-military personnel.

Paul Harrison, Advisor at Forces Cars Direct represented the company on the day and said “as an ex-RAF member it is an honour to get involved with our local bases and speak to personnel face-to-face, not just about their vehicle needs but also keeping in touch with our military community.”

Forces Cars Direct visitors were able to explore a new Volvo XC90 and SEAT Arona on display on the day, both models available with a considerable military discount with FCD’s unique programme alongside a whole host of other brands, all available on the website, www.forcescarsdirect.com, for current serving Armed Forces, service leavers and veterans.

Families also made the most of the funfair with ferris wheel, dodgems and bouncy castle, classic car display with 20+ models on display, and children were able to speak to and learn from the RAF crew and get up close to some of the aircraft.
