Shuttleworth Military Air Show 2026

The programme opened the gates at 09:00 and split the flying into two blocks: the first from 14:00 to 18:00, and a second slot from 19:00 to 20:00 to make the most of the low light. The visitors included the Warbird Experiences P-51D Mustang, the Aircraft Restoration Company's Spitfire XI, a Battle of Britain Memorial Flight Spitfire, a Westland Lynx from Project Lynx and, as a rarity, a 2Excel Boeing 727, alongside a Harvard IV, a Ryan PT-22 with a Boeing Stearman and a Miles Hawk Trainer 3. The resident collection put its own Spitfire and Westland Lysander into the air. On the ground, the Military Camp gathered military vehicles, re-enactments and air-defence equipment the public could handle; tickets started at £37, with children and parking free, and Shuttleworth House stayed closed that day. Every appearance was subject to weather and to each aircraft's serviceability.
