I love that museum! Great collection of race cars as well, plus the museum full of London buses. Hope to get back there someday!

The story of the VC-10 is fascinating. It was originally in service with BOAC and encountered extreme turbulence in South America. Bits of it were bent and had to be replaced.

Brooklands is awesome. My grandparents worked there many many years ago.
