LVG C.VI

In 1944 Mrs Dorothy Shuttleworth founded the Richard Ormonde Shuttleworth Remembrance Trust in memory of her only son who had been killed in RAF service.

Richard Shuttleworth's outstanding collection of historic aircraft has been added to over the years and it is no exaggeration to say that nowhere else in the world will you see such a calvacade of aviation history actually flying.

The Shuttleworth Collection is home to over 30 aircraft from the earliest pioneers, through WWI and the record breaking 20's and 30's to the heroic Spitfire of WWII.

But what makes Shuttleworth unique is that most of tehir aircraft actually fly! They're joined by a variety of vintage and modern types at a series of themed flying events at their beautiful and photogenic airfield (Old Warden) in Bedfordshire.
