Fylde Spitfire Memorial

On the seafront towards Fairhaven Lake you’ll typically see a Spitfire plane flying high within the sky. The 9-metre plane is a big, actual replica Spitfire. It’s being refurbished over the iciness of 2018. It sits on a plinth and pole-like aid, the centrepiece of a lakeside RAF Fighter and Bomber Command memorial. Its reputable name is the “Lytham St Annes RAF Fighter, Bomber & Coastal Command Memorial”. No-one must forget the horrifying days of World War 2. The volunteers deserve complete credit score for their efforts and Fylde human beings are proud to host the sort of memorial.

Visitors to Fairhaven Lake over the wintry weather of 2018 might be forgiven for questioning that the Lytham St Annes Spitfire W3644 has flown off, as it’s missing from its common function. The Spitfire has been taken to Hangar 42, the Lytham St Annes Spitfire Ground Display Team’s base at Blackpool Airport. Wrea Green primarily based enterprise Wareings very kindly donated the device and personnel to assist get better the Spitfire, which would have in any other case run to a extensive fee. Warings had at the start lifted and mounted the plane. You can visit this place with your loved ones.
