Unmissable scenes at the IWM Duxford this weekend, as Europe’s finest preserved Second World War airfield plays host to a spectacular commemoration of the Battle of Britain.

Rows of hurricanes and spitfires take to the skies in a packed two days which include displays by the Red Arrows and the French Air Force's Patrouille de France alongside pilot-led wanders, talks, workshops and costumed characters. A true tour de force.

Runs Saturday and Sunday (September 3-4 2010). Visit the show online for all the details.
