It was announced on 2 July 2013 that the airfield had been sold to a company belonging to local aviation enthusiast, Geoffrey Lynch,[5] by Morgan Stanley for an undisclosed price.

Morgan Stanley had become the owners when they purchased the portfolio of loans which owned the airfield from the Irish National Asset Management Agency.

[8] A two-storey office building followed in 2017[9] The airfield was the first in the UK to install and commission an electric aircraft charging point, available for public use from July 2021, and is the home of the NUNCATS project which is testing a prototype electric CH750, with a production version intended for use in the developing world, powered by a network of solar chargers at small unmade landing strips.

[14] Subsequent announcements from the airfield indicated that the main acts would be the return of the Spitfire and Mustang Duo, together with a World Record attempt by Brendan O'Brien.

Wind conditions on the day meant that O'Briens chances of success were slim and he came within inches of achieving his goal on the 5th attempt.

[20] The Airshow featured the reunion of Honor Blackman who played Pussy Galore in the James Bond film Goldfinger with the Hiller Aircraft UH12 Helicopter G-ASAZ which she starred with in the movie.

[23] The memorial consists of a large stone of black granite, carved into the form of a tailplane from the Consolidated B-24 Liberators which were based at the airfield and was installed[citation needed] on 29 July 1990.

[24] In October 2012 work started to relocate the memorial stone commemorating the 366 USAAF personnel who died serving from RAF Old Buckenham.

The memorial stone is at the end of a path cut in the form of a figure 8 to symbolise the Eighth Air Force.

It was created by Shaun Hindle, Steve Garrett, Scott Cooper, Lee Belcher & Matt Wilkins" In 2013 the airfield changed its logo to a shield, originally carved by a serving USAAF officer during World War II.

The plans are for the erection of two Nissen Huts, one of which will house items described as having the potential to be the largest collection of 453rd Bomb Group memorabilia in existence.

[31] In October 2012 it was announced that the airfield and museum would collaborate on a new show called Military Revival[32] Promotional videos were released, showing a Citroen Van being destroyed by a FV180 Combat Engineer Tractor[33] and a lawn mower being flattened by an unexploded World War II German bomb.

[38][39] Machines on display include a Russian T-55 tank which was used in the 1995 James Bond film GoldenEye, a Multiple Launch Rocket System and a MGM-52 Lance nuclear missile.
