BOSCOMBE DOWN AVIATION VISIT

> Back to Events

We have 20 places booked to visit the above establishment on 29th September 2024.

The rendezvous point will be in the Malborough Tesco superstore car park SN8 4AE at 09.45 for a 10.00 departure. Journey time expected to be approximately one hour.

We will be permitted to park our cars in front of the two hangars, which provides an excellent backdrop for a group photo and then congregate in the Conference Room for a tea or coffee, while we enjoy a brief introduction to BDAC and its history.

We are then free to explore the two WW1 hangars that are full of cockpits and aircraft, all with provenance of A&AEE Boscombe Down, Old Sarum Airfield and the surrounding Wessex area.

This is very much a “hands on” Collection, many of the exhibits have ladders or steps to allow you to climb in and experience flying a fast jet.

A fee of £10.50 per person includes the welcome drink, the intro and entry to the hangars and is payable on the day. Tour duration approx. two hours.

Following our visit, we have a reservation at a local restaurant for lunch (not compulsory)

As spaces are limited, please contact me to reserve your place.
