Yeovilton Air Day 2006 

Saturday 8th July 2006

Yeovilton Air Day 2006 Naval Aviation can truly be described as 'Flying with a Difference', as we aim to demonstrate during Air Day 2006.

Since its origins in 1914 with the Royal Naval Air Service, later to be renamed the Fleet Air Arm, Naval Aviation has rightly been the province of the Royal Navy. Over the intervening period of 92 years, this winning combination of naval aviators flying from RN ships has revolutionised maritime and aerial warfare in every theatre of operation (be it sand, sea, jungle or snow), through their unique ability to deliver effective and precise military force from the sea.

Yeovilton based Commando Sea King and Lynx helicopters and Maritime Lynx Squadrons will feature in the extensive flying and static display along with visiting military and civilian aircraft, historic and modern from around the world.
