Cranfield Airport is near
Bedford and Milton Keynes.
On this flight you will see
such exciting landmarks as
Cardington Airship Hangars,
Millbrook Vehicle Proving
Ground, Woburn Abbey and
Safari Park, Milton Keynes
and Snow Dome and
Silverstone Race Track. The
hangars at Cardington were
built in the 1920s to house
cargo and passenger-carrying
airships. They are still in
use today, not just in the
development of airships, but
as a fire research centre
and in films, too, such as
Batman Begins. Millbrook is
an extensive site where
every kind of land vehicle
including heavy commercial,
military and off-road
vehicles are tested and
demonstrated. Your pilot
will explain more during
en-route commentary. A truly
fabulous flight for
historians, motor/Formula 1
enthusiasts and
animal-lovers alike!
