Last week, we were delighted to host Echelon Air Ltd for a special celebratory event to mark three significant milestones - their brand-new G7 Cirrus SR20, G7 flight simulator, and prestigious Platinum Cirrus Training Centre designation. Guests had the opportunity to explore the G7 SR20 up close, and experience state-of-the-art training resources, including simulator demonstrations and insights into the Cirrus Vision Jet. The event follows Echelon Air’s recent recognition as a Cirrus Authorised Platinum Training Centre - an accolade that reflects their commitment to delivering the highest standard of flight instruction. We look forward to supporting the team as they continue to set a new standard for flight training here at London Biggin Hill Airport.

We are deeply sorry to hear of the passing of John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC – the last Battle of Britain Pilot. A remarkable person whose courage and sacrifice, alongside that of his peers, will never be forgotten. Our thoughts are with his family, friends, and all who knew him.
It is with great sadness we announce the passing of John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC – the last Battle of Britain Pilot. Paddy was an amazing character whose life story embodies all that was and remains great about the Royal Air Force. His passing should make us reflect not only on his sacrifices, but on the sacrifices of all those who served and fought during WWII. Condolence Message from Chief of the Air Staff, Air Chief Marshal Sir Rich Knighton: "It is with great sadness that I heard of the passing of John ‘Paddy’ Hemingway DFC today. I am thankful that I was able to meet and spend time with him in Dublin, most recently in January this year. Paddy was an amazing character whose life story embodies all that was and remains great about the Royal Air Force. In his youth he travelled from Ireland to join the RAF and following the outbreak of World War Two, was assigned to No. 85 Squadron in France, where he is recorded as destroying two enemy aircraft during the Battle for France, as well as flying supporting missions during the Battle of Dunkirk. He eventually retired from the RAF in 1969 as a Group Captain. Throughout his life he inspired those he knew and served with. My thoughts are with his family and all those who cared for him over the past few years. “This was a generation who understood the importance of service and comradeship. A generation who believed that with hard work, clarity of purpose and a determination to succeed, they would not lose. Their efforts and the efforts of all our personnel past & present are the bedrock on which the Royal Air Force maintains the security of the UK at home and abroad. Their sense of duty and willingness to put others before themselves should inspire those who will build the next generation Air Force." Paddy, thank you for your service.
