G-NXTE Spirit of Innovation
Went to the London Science Museum to see ‘ Spirit of Innovation ‘. The Electroflight NXTE claimed record for fastest electric aircraft (345.4 mph) on 16-11-21 at Boscombe Down. As expected, lighting terrible and squashed between pillars. Still, the museum remains free entry, and has a flight gallery...

My one and only visit to Aberdeen Airport in September 1986. Considered to be one of the busiest UK airfields for movements around that time. Something for helicopter fans.

Biggin Hill Early 1970's onward
Folks today, mainly go to Biggin for biz-jet activity. Back in the 1970’s early 1980’s there was a large number of Flying clubs and based lights, probably 150+. There was the occasional foreign reg visitor ( mostly at the Air Fairs) and biz jets rarely seen. There was freedom to roam, if you behaved...
