One of the best days out w have had i a long time. The collection was incredibly diverse and actually being used, not just sitting in the museum gathering dust. The aerial display was spectacular and the Swiss Garden was equally impressive. Can't wait to go back again.

With little or no expectations we ( three blokes 60+) went to Bedfordshire to visit the Shuttleworth collection. A wonderful display of very early aircraft and some motor vehicles. The attached history as the machines changed from expanding man’s vision and imagination into war machine and the consequential loss of human life is staggering. Nevertheless it is a wholly enjoyable corner of the country and one which needs preservation.
As an added bonus the tranquility if the Swiss gardens made for a most enjoyable end to the excursion.
