About

The Dambusters Twilight Taxi-Run at London Southend Airport will begin with a big-screen Secret Cinema showing of the 1955 feature film, The Dam Busters.

Vulcan XL426 will then carry out two taxi-runs on the London Southend Airport runway. The second run will be a high-speed pass.

Viewing will be from the Trust's exclusive visitor area in front of its hangar.

This will give an uninterrupted view across the airport and unrivaled photographic opportunities.

Teas and coffees will be on sale throughout the evening and there will be a licensed bar.
