National Aviation Day - images image EPW037625 and EPW037626- something of a misnommer, as it was not a single day at all. Cobham's Air Circus toured the country and the day of each performance was - National Aviation Day. In 1932 Alan Cobham started the National Aviation Day displays - a combination of barnstorming and joyriding. This consisted of a team of up to fourteen aircraft, ranging from single-seaters to modern airliners, and many skilled pilots. It toured the country, calling at hundreds of sites, some of them regular airfields and some just fields cleared for the occasion. Generally known as "Cobham's Flying Circus", it was hugely popular, giving thousands of people their first experience of flying, and bringing "air-mindedness" to the population. These continued until the end of the 1935 season. |
