Imperial War Museum Duxford has announced its air shows for 2014, including a commemoration of the 70th anniversary of D-Day.

The D-Day Anniversary Air Show on Saturday May 24 and Sunday May 25 commemorates the 70th anniversary of the decisive military campaign, demonstrating the vital role that aerial warfare played in the invasion of Normandy.

The air show will feature fighter, bomber and transport aircraft types that would have been seen over the beaches of France as well as a march past by Normandy veterans and serving personnel from the Parachute Regiment.

The Flying Legends Air Show is on Saturday July 12 and Sunday July 13. Historic piston-engined aircraft can be seen in rare combinations and flying displays, with an authentic 1940s atmosphere on the ground.

The Duxford Air Show is on Saturday September 13 and Sunday September 14. The show is a celebration of aviation in its many diverse and varied forms, with historic aircraft, contemporary jets and aerobatics.
