Aviation adventures arrive at the Hop Farm on the weekend of the 20th and 21st September 2008 with the Southern Model Airshow, which has earned the accolade of the ‘South’s premier model air show’.

The Airshow just keeps getting better and better with a 100+ model pilots, a pair of full size stunt planes, a full size Helicopter display, pyrotechnic display, low flybys and displays from boats and cars to tanks, trains and Darlek's. Full permanent camping facilities, Friendly trade stalls and a large ‘Bring and Buy area’, flying from 9.30am to 5pm daily and then 'off the peg' flying into the evening as well as the famous Saturday Night Party complete the picture.

One of the few shows in the modelling calendar where you will see so many families enjoying the day out.
