Wings and Wheels at Dunsfold

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Dunsfold Aerodrome is home to Formula Woman and to BBC's Top Gear Motoring Show. The aerodrome is home to a number of aircraft including the Vicker Vimy 19/94 replica now under the ownership of Brooklands Museum. The show is held in support of local charities such as Brooklands Museum, Cranleigh Village Hospital, CHASE and Surrey Community Foundation. The show always has a strong theme of Hawker and British Aeropace (BAE Systems) products, a reflection of the aviation history of both Brooklands and Dunsfold. There's also always a number of warbirds such as P-51 Mustangs, C-47 Dakotas and B-25 Mitchells reflecting the interesting and often secretive wartime history of the airfield.
