4 months ago
This was the last Major Aircraft movement to take place on the Brooklands Airfield on the 29th May 2004 The runway has now become part of Mercedes World.

The aircraft is the Brooklands Vickers Vanguard Merchantman call sign G-APEP, the only complete surviving example of the type left in the world.

You can see a list of my other HD Videos here vimeo.com/andysvideos/videos/page:1/sort:newest

You can visit this aircraft and many others, at Brooklands Museum
