THIS TALK IS A MUST, SAYS BRIGG COUNCILLOR

North Lincolnshire Council has kindly supplied further details about the Vulcan talk we mentioned recently on Brigg Blog.
The next Northern Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Project talk will see retired Squadron Leader Andy Marson discussing the interesting history and development of the Vulcan on Friday 26 February, 7pm at SkyDive Clubhouse, Hibaldstow Airfield.
Andy will give an insightful talk into the history and development of the Vulcan and its associated weapon systems. As well as explain the training and operational use of the aircraft during the latter stages of the Cold War.
Tickets cost £5 in advance or £6 on the door. Numbers are limited, so please get your ticket as soon as possible if you would like to attend. This includes refreshments.
You can buy your tickets from Waters’ Edge Visitor Centre, call 01652 631500 or from Brigg Tourist Information Centre, call 01652 657053. You can also pop into either Tourist Information Centre.
The Northern Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Project was launched in May 2012. It covers eight airfields in the northern part of Lincolnshire and tells the story of these World War Two airfields and the part they played during the war.
Now four years on, the project has continued to develop and this talk from Andy Marson is its fifth talk.
Brigg's Coun Rob Waltham, Deputy Leader & Cabinet Member for Health, Strategic Projects and Regeneration, said: “The Northern Lincolnshire Aviation Project is going from strength to strength. It provides a fantastic insight into the rich aviation history in our area, which is extremely fascinating. If you’re an aviation enthusiast, this talk is a must. We have received some great feedback from previous talks and I’m sure this one will have you captivated. To make sure you don’t miss out, buy your tickets early.”
