It ran once a year, usually near the end of June, at London Biggin Hill Airport, a former World War II RAF fighter station, from 1963 to 2010.

Squadron Leader Jock Maitland purchased a lease to run Biggin Hill Airport from Bromley Council in 1958, and commenced the first show in 1963.

Subsequently, Jock set up in business with a local builder to form Maitland Drewery Aviation and operated Vickers Viscount aircraft.

Drewery conceived the infamous steel Wendy House which once graced the Apron on Biggin Hill Airport.

The proposed annual one-day event was limited to 15,000 spectators and was meant to portray Biggin Hill as both a site of historical value and as a modern thriving business airport.

Airfair Radio broadcast live from the airfield 24 hours of the day, with programmes of commentary, music, interviews, phone-in competitions, local current affairs and dedications.

The station was operated by volunteers, many of whom worked in the broadcasting and communications industries; this allowed it to draw on a variety of experience from associated fields.
