Two spitfires will fly over the region to celebrate Armed Forces Day.

The historic warplanes will chase each other over Bognor's Armed Forces Day celebrations while serving personnel, veterans and cadets march on the ground.

The Supermarine Spitfire serves as a symbol of the Second World War and the flying pair will be used to commemorate our military history.

A Harvard T-6 plane, once used to train US Air Force Pilots and later part of the West German Air Force through Nato, will also fly past over the sea.

Both displays are subject to the weather.

The event kicks off at 10.30am on the promenade in front of the pier on Saturday, June 22, and finishes in Waterloo Gardens at 6pm, where there are stages and stalls. A re-enactment of an RAF operations room and look-out-post will also be on the green.
