Amazing airshows and a classic collection of old flying machines from a more 'gentile' era of gentleman flying

 

The Shuttleworth collection contains some absolute classic and rare aircraft, some of which are the only remaining examples of their type in the world. It really should be an aviation world heritage site - Old Warden's Shuttleworth collection is a must and one of the finest collections of flying classic aircraft in the world
