HEADCORN AERODROME KENT
Headcorn Aerodrome is the last grass wartime airfield left in Kent from which you can experience iconic WW2 aircraft. We have operated from Headcorn Aerodrome since 2014 with World War II aircraft. Its location in the heart of Kent allows us to fly through the same airspace in which the Battle of Britain was fought over 80 years ago.
Headcorn Aerodrome is undeniably the most popular location in the world for Fly a Spitfire Experiences as a result of its proximity to the Kent coast. As a result this location provides unbeatable value for overflying the Battle of Britain Memorial at Capel Le Ferne and the iconic White Cliffs of Dover. Equally popular landmarks include Leeds Castle as well as Dover Castle, Dover Harbour and Beachy Head. Each landmark serving as a key feature during the Battle of Britain and the relentless attacks by the Luftwaffe.
