de Havilland Chipmunk 75th Anniversary - March 22nd!
Celebrate 75 years since the first flight of the iconic de Havilland Canada DHC-1 Chipmunk. Affectionally is known as 'the poor man's Spitfire', these aircraft were used for decades by a number of Air Forces to train pilots. Many exist today around the world in civilian ownership, including around 12 in New Zealand. We will have at least 3 examples on display, including the very aircraft that Prince Philip learned to fly in.
The Kittyhawk Cafe will be open and we can offer joyrides in 1940s vintage open-cockpit Tiger Moth biplanes.
This event is weather permitting.
