Anyone with a passion for Sir Keith Park and military aviation is welcome to become a member of our incorporated society. In fact, anyone with passion . . !!
The incorporated society was formed 12th November 2019, principally to be a legal entity in order to work with the Thames-Coromandel District Council on developments at the Thames Airfield, and to raise funds to promote and acknowledge all the achievements of Sir Keith Park. The objectives of Sir Keith Park Memorial Airfield Inc. are shown below.
Members, individually and collectively, provide support to the officers to enable the objectives of the incorporated society to be realised.
Our first priority was to complete Stage 1 of the Sir Keith Park Memorial in time for the Battle of Britain Commemoration in 2020 – the 80th anniversary of this aerial campaign. This was achieved, and has resulted in the Memorial quickly becoming a draw card to Thames residents and visitors alike.
Benefits of membership are evolving now that we have shown that we can actually do something!!
These currently include:
- Camaraderie with like-minded Sir Keith admirers;
- Invitations to aviation-related events at the Thames Airfield;
- Invitations to Battle of Britain and RSA functions;
- SKPMA Inc. newsletters
- Accompanied tours to vintage military aircraft restoration facilities;
- Greater information coverage of military aviation events and facilities via a re-built SKPMA Inc. website;
- And other informative and stimulating stuff: aviation, heritage and the like . . .
Coming soon will be:

- And other informative and stimulating stuff: aviation, heritage and the like . . .
