RIAT 2024
We had our full ground display on show, including a Willy's Jeep, our C-47 Cockpit (with Night Fright nose art for the weekend) a VR experience (showcasing the Night Fright Restoration) and @elliecarter74 and our L-4 Grasshopper.
We also had some very special friends with us for the weekend, we welcomed the 79th Air Refuelling Squadron with their KC-10 from Travis AFB in California, checkout why in the video!
Thanks for having us @airtattoo 😀

Night Fright progress update May 24.
มุมมอง 2.7K2 หลายเดือนก่อน
We’ve been conspicuous by our absence in terms of updates on social media recently, most of that has been deliberate, so we thought it was about time we gave you an update… There are a couple of things that we have been saying for a while now, firstly, we are 100% committed to detail and being as historically accurate as possible. Secondly “all good things come to those who wait”. This coming w...

Night Fright 2021 in a nutshell.
มุมมอง 1K2 ปีที่แล้ว
2021 has been another strange year for everyone, not least the Night Fright team. Progress with the restoration itself has been slow but there have still been some great achievements, including the complete overhaul of Night Fright’s original wings. It’s been another busy year away from the hangar as well, our first Airshow at Abingdon being a particular highlight. Let’s hope 2022 is a much bet...

Warbird Coffee x Night Fright

There are a few things we’re pretty serious about, C-47s, history and coffee! Our partnership with @warbirdcoffee combines everything we are passionate about. We had great fun making this video with one of the founders of Warbird Coffee, @adamdad517 Adam demonstrates how to make the perfect cup of Night Fright Coffee. The coffee accurately recreates the 60/40 blend of Brazilian Bourbon Santos &...
Night Fright progress update - March 2021
มุมมอง 1.4K3 ปีที่แล้ว
This video is a little different in the way we filmed it and put it together due to COVID and current restrictions. Since the turn of the year the team have been busy continuing work on the wings, excellent progress has been made and the end is in sight. As with most other aspects of the project the restoration of the wings has been way more involved than we thought but we're still happy we dec...

มุมมอง 8203 ปีที่แล้ว
I don’t think any of us could have imagined 2020 would have turned out as it has. Just like everyone else we have had our plans and timescales changed in light of current events. That being said it’s still been a very busy year for the team with lots of exciting things happenning. 2021 promises to be the most exciting year for the project so far, hopefully things will become slightly easier for...

Catchup with all things Night Fright as Charlie recaps the goings on from Coventry over the past couple of months. Focus has mainly been on progressing the cabin.

VE Day - 75th Anniversary at Membury
มุมมอง 5704 ปีที่แล้ว
It's hard to imagine how the men of the 436th Troop Carrier Group felt 75 years ago when victory in Europe was announced. I think they all knew it was imminent as a number of men from the 79th Troop Carrier Squadron had flown to Cannes where they celebrated for a number of days. 75 years later, the Night Fright team are extremely thankful of the sacrifices made by all the Allied forces to ensur...
