ENTERTAINMENT will take to the skies in June with the return of the News Shopper-sponsored Biggin Hill International Air Fair.

Early-bird tickets are now on sale for the air show, which takes place over the weekend of June 7 and June 8.

The air fair is one of only five in Britain with a full RAF show, celebrating 90 years since the air force's formation, and this year boasts the Avro Vulcan V-Bomber, a Cold War-era jet which last flew in 1992.

Colin Hitchins, the chief executive of Air Displays International, which runs the air fair, said: "This year's show is probably even stronger than last year's, which was very successful.

"The Vulcan is one of the most eagerly anticipated aircraft to be seen again in recent years, and it carries the same engine as a Concorde."

Advance tickets cost £17 for adults, £5 for children and £36 for a family of two adults and three children.

Admission on the day is £21 for adults, £7 for children and £45 for families.
