Wings and Wheels Henstridge, August 2010



The weather broke just in time for the 11th staging of this great show. Over 200 classic cars and 65 aircraft arrived for the day.

One of the objectives of the event is to raise awareness and a bit of money for the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance based at the airfield.



The special visitor this year was the Battle of Britain's Lancaster.



The sun shone but the wind was marginal for many of our regular visitors, gusts upto 20kts across the main runway.



But what did arrive look wonderful and the visitors to the show had the opportunity to get real close to the aircraft, during the No Fly Time. Will flew his F15, and as a top radio controlled display pilot, gave a supurb display with his model aircraft flying at over 150mph (real speed) across the sky.

All too soon it came time to close the show, but memories will last until next years Wings and Wheels at Henstridge.



See you next year!
