Duxford Three Aircraft and a Bus.


Duxford Vickers V.701 Viscount, G-ALWF, just back on display after a complete repaint. Now looking good once more. This was the second production aircraft built by Vickers-Armstrong. She was transferred to Duxford on 22nd February 1976.

Bristol Type 175 Britannia 312
This was the world’s first large turboprop airliner. This aircraft had extra fuel capacity giving it the range to operate non-stop across the Atlantic.
