Following an enforced break in 2020 due to the pandemic, Air-Britain were delighted to return to Turweston for our 2021 Fly-In on 19-20 June. Our thanks go to our hosts the Turweston Flight Centre Ltd, the owners who brought a wide variety of aircraft to our event, exhibitors, all the volunteers involved and the public for giving us your support. Disappointingly very poor weather on the Sunday severely impacted the numbers attending, but over 50 aircraft joined us on the Saturday. A small number of awards were given as shown in the table below.
