This Hawker Hind was delivered new to the Royal Afghan Air Force in 1938 and continued in use until the 1950s. It was presented to the Shuttleworth Collection and was collected with the help of the Ford Motor Company in 1970. The journey of 6000 miles from Kabul to Old Warden took four weeks and the team had to endure many trials before the Hind was safely in the restoration hangar. The Hind was restored, and flew again on 17 August 1981, resplendent in Afghan Air Force Markings. The Hind was repainted in 1985 to represent K5414 of 15 Squadron, Royal Air Force.

Vista a tres cuartos por detras del Lysander con muchas nubes y poco sol. Algo interesante debe venir por la izquierda, a juzgar por la actitud de los spotters.

The Shuttleworth Collection's Spitfire Vc was built by Westland Aircraft at Yeovil and was issued to No. 310 (Czech) Squadron at Duxford in 1942. While serving with No. 310 Squadron, AR501 escorted many USAAF B17 and B24 bombers, indeed AR501 may well have escorted the famous B17 'Memphis Belle'. AR501 was later taken on by the RAF's Central Gunnery School and was used postwar by Loughborough College as an instructional airframe. It was transferred to The Shuttleworth Collection in 1961 and was restored to flying condition for the film 'The Battle of Britain'. It was stored for a while after filming, until restoration to authentic wartime condition was carried out by a volunteer team at Duxford. Over the winter of 2000/2001 AR501 was repainted and elliptical wingtips were refitted, returning the aircraft to the condition in which it was delivered to 310 Squadron. It is currently undergoing a thorough ground-up restoration in the workshop at Old Warden. c/n WASP/20/223.

Built in 1932, G-ACTF was the 9th of 42 Swifts to be built. It was originally registered to Alban Ali as VT-ADO 'The Scarlet Angel' and spent the first part of its life in India. Sold to George Errington who rebuilt it and re-registered the aircraft as G-ACTF on May 24 1934. Purchased by the Shuttleworth Collection in August 1996. During 1998 it was overhauled and restored to its original factory condition and paint scheme. However engine problems have kept it away from the display scene since then, but it should fly again soon.

The de Havilland DH.60 Moth is a 1920s British two-seat touring and training aircraft that was developed into a series of aircraft by the de Havilland Aircraft Company. The DH.60X Moth was an optional'X' braced undercarriage version of the early Gipsy Moth. (X-style undercarriage became standard for the DH.60M and all subsequent models)
