We now have the details for the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight flyby of tomorrow's Wokingham Classic Motor Show 2026!

Published by http://www.rafbbmf.co.uk you can see that it's scheduled between 13:10-13:40 tomorrow - we're expecting it around 13:24 but this may change due to weather/operational reasons.

Currently the flypast will consist of a Douglas Dakota named 'Kwicherbichen'. The C47 Dakota is a military transport derivation of the Douglas DC3. It's renowned as being one of the most successful and venerated military cargo aircraft of all time. It was associated with D-Day airborne operations and serves as the BBMF's primary multi-engine display aircraft in 2026.

If you'd like to track the flight you can do so on Flightradar24.com using aircraft ID ZA947 : https://www.flightradar24.com/data/aircraft/za947

Don't forget - we have lots of other attractions at the Motor Show!

🚘 Over 100 classic cars, motorcycles and military vehicles
🚘 Live music from Revolver
