Wings and Wheels 2014

Wings and Wheels will be staged this year at Henstridge Airfield, just between Sherborne and Shaftesbury on the Dorset / Somerset border.  It will be held on Saturday 23rd August 2014 and the gates open to the public at 10am.  the cost is £5 per person and under 16s are free when accompanied by a paying adult.  Please note this is a live airfield and so NO dogs are allowed.  There is limited disabled parking.

This year we will be welcoming the Battle of Britain Memorial Flights Lancaster, Hurricane and Spitfire, plus the Canadian Lancaster, VERA!




Provided the weather holds, we should have an amazing display of vintage and classic aircraft in the air park, and at lunchtime you will be able to walk around the aircraft and talk with the pilots!



We also have a huge number of classic cars and military vehicles booked into the show this year!



On a good day we can have over 100 aircraft to be looked at, and the arrivals and departures are a sight to be seen.





Along with a nice variety of trade stalls and great food options, this really is a fine event for the whole family!

Blue Ridge Runners Show

Not only do I love teaching safer driving in the Corsa, but I also love my cars, and so this last weekend we travelled to the depths of Somerset to attend the Blue Ridge Runners show.  It was great and the cruise on Saturday was amazing.  Shame the weather closed in on Sunday .... but that is England, if you dont like the weather wait a minute!






To see more shows that we, as Dorset Car Club< are going to CLICK HERE and see the website.
