NAM Updater Posted April 6, 2015 Author Share Posted April 6, 2015 A further update has been added to the website, but at the moment I'm afraid no open cockpits are listed for Wednesday (struggling to find any openers after a very popular and busy weekend). Tuesday - Shackleton & Vulcan Thursday - Vulcan Friday - Shackleton & Vulcan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NAM Updater Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 Vulcan update from our website: "We now have a provisional time for the flypast at Newark Air Museum, which is 1545 hours local (BST). One aspect to remember, as advised by the VOC is as follows: “The time available at each location is strictly limited by fuel, and the ability to manoeuvre by the weight of the aircraft.”" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NAM Updater Posted June 21, 2015 Author Share Posted June 21, 2015 The museum is now aware of a traffic issue next weekend, which may affect people trying to get to Newark to see the Vulcan flypast. This involves the closure of the A1 northbound near to the museum and a similar closure this weekend has seen traffic issues on the local roads. We have just updated the information on our website to advise of this issue and details can be found in here! As we say on the website: “These closures and diversion routes close to the museum have led to significant traffic issues this weekend (19 June to 22 June, 2015); please select your route carefully, allow plenty of time and don’t get caught out!” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
