The Great North Fly In

Welcome to the website for the 2011 Great North Fly In.

Following the success of last years event the 'GREAT NORTH FLY IN', will take place at Eshott Airfield, Northumberland on the weekend of 25th/26th June 2011. The event will include Light Aircraft, Microlights, Autogyros, Paramotors and Powered Hang-gliders. Both LAA, BMAA, BGA are most welcome.

The event is designed to appeal to everyone who has an interest in aviation.

The concept is to meet the needs of all aviators hopefully getting bigger and better this year ,also to get as many flyers of whatever aircraft to attend the event, as well as other contributors and to have a lot of fun.

We hope to have a variety of interesting aircraft large and small

All profits will go to the "THE ROYAL BRITISH LEGION", "HELP FOR HEROES" and the "FUSILIER AID SOCIETY" . Last year we raised over £2,500 over the weekend.

There will be no landing fee and we hope to raise some money for our charity supporting our servicemen and women wounded/maimed and disfigured on operations in  Iraq and Afghanistan.
