Edwardian Pageant

07 GBP

The Edwardian Pageant will celebrate the fabulous vintage and aircraft that are at the heart of The Collection, some of which were collected and owned by Richard Shuttleworth himself, or which have been preserved in his memory. It is this event on our calendar that keeps alive the passion of this Collection. Our airshow will highlight The Collection’s aircraft at their best, and showcase why it is so important to keep these historic aircraft airworthy.   Visiting acts will be drawn from the WWI era so expect to step back in time today, so it will be a special pleasure for those who enjoy the early years of aviation and transport. If we can make it fly, drive and ride, we will, so enjoy watching the very heart of the Shuttleworth Collection on display!   Visiting aircraft includes: Fokker Triplane (Breighton), BE2E (WAHT), Albatros (WAHT), Sopwith Snipe (WAHT), Mew Gull (David Beale), Calidus (Peter Davies), Muscle biplane (Rich Goodwin) and BBMF Spitfire – flypast.   Collection aircraft includes: WWI.   All aircraft are provisional and may be subject to change.   Vehicle parade from Fordson Wot.   Additional entertainment includes: - Live Music from Alexandra Jones ‘Make & paint’ with Airfix & IPMS Brampton (free) - Swiss Garden tours at 12.00 and 15.00 (free) - Flightline tours at 10.00, 10.30, 11.00, 11.30 (book at SVAS stand) - The Shuttleworth Re-enactor Historians - Pilot’s chat - The House is open from 10.00-14.00.
