We have had a request for aids during Spitfire Tours... So if anyone has anything like this that they no longer need and want to find it a new home, please leave a message in the comments.
We are in Oxfordshire so it would have to be close by for us to pick it up 👍

Spitfire Simulator Experience 11/06/2021

It's always nice to receive a thank you note:

A quick note to thank you for showing Elizabeth and I your amazing hangar - and its contents - yesterday.

It was great to meet you and to reacquaint ourselves with Enstone – it is now rather a special place we thought.

When all the Covid restrictions finally die down, it would be good to bring a few helicopter friends to try our hands at your simulator – I will be in touch when the time seems right.
