Allied Airmen Exhibition

The exhibition was staged by Aviation Heritage Lincolnshire.

The exhibition told the story of the many Allied airmen in the county during the First World War. Personnel from the United States Army Air Service, the United States Navy, the Australian Flying Corps and Imperial Russian Air Service were based in Lincolnshire.

In addition, many individuals from around the world – both the Dominions and elsewhere – volunteered to serve with the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Naval Air Service at Scampton. Sadly, some of them – falling victim to the dangers of flying – never returned home and lie forever at rest in our county. ‘Allies in the Air’ will tell their story.

STOP PRESS: The exhibition has been extended every day 10am x 4pm during September and October with thanks to Aviation Heritage Lincolnshire.
