Welcome to the Plain Invasion Website.

 This event was started about five years ago by a small group of friends, military vehicle enthusiasts and photographers. Having spent the best part of fifteen years chasing modern Military vehicles about the SPTA, we thought why not try and re-introduce some of the classics back to the ranges.

Our aim for the weekend is for vehicle owners to camp and drive their pride and joy across the biggest British Military training grounds in Europe. We also try and show you some of the locations that are ideal for some great photographic opportunities.

Although some of the bigger training features and areas are out of bounds to civilians, we still get to drive on the public rights of way and visit some of the less more active areas on Salisbury Plain.

All vehicles are welcome, no matter how big or small.

Apart from the great food; supplied and cooked by our very good friend and team member Dave Ives. We also offer a great community spirit and a friendly feel to the weekend.

Full Fire, medical and recovery will be offered for the weekend but it is always best you also bring the basic tools and recovery gear for any inventuality. Part of the convoy will be the classic valley run, ten miniutes of water, humps, bumps and lumps. This is not for the faint-hearted and no one is pushed into doing it. Alternative routes will be scouted before the convoy departs.

All this can only be done with the help and co-operation from West Down D.T.E. and Land Marc. It is down to us to protect and act in a responsible manner while on the area: To-date, we have never received a single complaint from the MOD or the general public - you can find the rules and regulations in the registration page on this website.

Our main attraction over the last few years has been our convoy over Salisbury Plain. Again the convoys are conducted in a Military style and everyone works as a team to ensure that all vehicles are counted out and all vehicles are counted back to base. 

Sadly the convoy over the SPTA can only be done with wheeled vehicles. Tracked vehicles can however come to the campsite and be displayed.

 Dave at Trysec is supplying us with all the neccessary fire, Medical and recovery cover. Dave will also be bringing a large number of radio kit for the convoy and to display.

I will post more details in the very near future, so please re-visit this site for the latest up-dates.

Many thanks to everyone that has supported this event over the years and long may it continue.

The Plain Invasion team.
