Welcome…
To the official website of the
Army Air Corps Historic Aircraft Flight.
An introduction by the Officer Commanding.
The AHAF display season starts in mid April when the aircraft have been
fully serviced over the winter period by our extremely experienced team
of engineers. The pilots
then gather for training culminating around mid May in the Flying Display
being authorised by the Director of Army Aviation (DAAvn) and the Commandant
of the School of Army Aviation (SAAvn).
The majority of displays take place within a relatively short distance
of Middle Wallop in order to preserve flying hours. We are limited by
our AHAF charter to only attend Airshows and
other events within a 100 mile radius of Middle Wallop. This can, in special
circumstances, be extended, as you can see from our list of venues we
hope to participate in this year.
We plan to participate in over fifteen events
this year ranging from a full Flying Display to Flypasts and Static Displays.
Please come and visit us to see these historic aircraft in action as well
as “up close” and of course meet the crews.
The Flight displays at a number of events during the season and is available
to any individual or organisation as single aircraft (within the parameters
of the AHAF Charter). Where possible, the team will land after a display
and perform a static display, offering the opportunity for the public
to obtain a closer look at these fascinating flying machines. Although
the aircraft are not available for the carriage of passengers, it is possible
to arrange air-to-air photographic and film opportunities as required.
