I had heard that the 2025 edition of Cockpit Fest might be the last one held at Newark Air Museum, and as to my shame, I had never been to one, this was to be the priority for this day out and about.

We arrived just as they opened up for the day and spent a few hours looking around Cockpit Fest and the rather excellent Newark Air Museum collection.

“Over the weekend of 21st and 22nd June, 2025, we hosted our twenty-fifth (25th) annual Cockpit-Fest event. During the Sunday Awards Ceremony, the museum trustees made the sad announcement that this was to be the last time that NAM was hosting Cockpit-Fest.”

Asked at the Control point here and they were fine with us walking around but wasn’t allowed to cross over to the Helicopter hangar. I think this is because there was a bit of activity with some kind of air racing going on.

Hinton-in-the-Hedges

Bumped into Dave Haines and Nigel Hitchman here – good to see you guys and some good pre-Oshkosh chat was had. Sadly we had just missed Tom Cruise who had paid the Skydiving club a visit, but then left by his helicopter. Nowhere official to ask for a look around, so I usually ask the first person that I see around the airfield area. Nobody at the Skydiving club is bothered as long as you don’t get in the way of whatever they are doing – you have to go past these guys to get to the hangar area.

Enstone

Friendly upon asking at the Flying Club for permission to walk around. It was getting late in the day and there was virtually no activity on the airfield, so we were told it was completely fine to wander around. Note that it is still possible to get quite a log from here even when not a lot is happening…

The following log is in reg order and my photographs can be seen at;

Before parting ways, I showed my slack friend where my local Vulcan nose was. Seems to be left outside all the time if any of you need to see it. You can see it from a distance at 51.620730, -1.331808

(XH560), Avro Vulcan K.2 (nose), United Kingdom (AV214)
