  1. Do you have any idea just how hard it is to sit in a Martin-Baker ejection seat and not pull the handle between your legs just to see what will happen? I do. (The ceiling was very low.)

  4. Moving on to my next book of the year, and I recently visited the Brooklands Museum, and decided to buy this rather than a guide book. I’m not sure whether or not I made the right choice! #Goodreads #ReadingChallenge #BookLovers #Bookworm #Bibliophile #CurrentlyReading #Brooklands #MotorRacing #TheGhostAtBrooklandsMuseum #MarkRichardson #AutographedCopy #

  7. Good to see you again. You're looking as hopeful and beautiful as you've always been. Always looking ready to take to the skies, if the world ceased to be hostile towards you. We miss you.

  13. The #Concorde #GBBDG Test Article (located at #Brooklands Museum is one of the last few remaining Concordes whose snoot can still droop.

    If it were to droop, the snoot would droop by actuating this lever.

    I've always wanted to know how you'd engage the droop snoot, and I was incredibly fortunate to having seen a Concorde from the inside in person. Something I thought I'd never be able to do

  14. Yesterday I swapped my #Brooklands leather saddle for the regular #RadRunner seat as it got wet. I set it much lower than I would usually, which lets me sit nice and relaxed on the commute. Unfortunately, it also causes the rain to run up my legs and pool in the crotchal area, leaving me walking like John Wayne until I dry out a bit more... #ebikes #BikeTooter

  19. Been for a #parkrun at Brooklands - 2nd ever. Walk back to Weybridge station was lovely & took in this nice cameo of swans with their babies & Concorde in the background. #Brooklands

  23. Did I say I have #dived the #Bouncing #Bombs in #Lock #Striven near #Dunoon twice now? These are *not* the #Dambusters #Upkeep as deployed by #Lancaster #Bombers, but spherical #Highball bombs deployed by #Mosquito. These were the #RAF tools to sink the #Tirpitz. This was my first trip with the Seahorse #Dive Club with Tom. There are only two Highballs on the surface, #Brooklands and the de Havilland Aircraft Museum. This is a true underwater #museum!

  26. Back when men wore flowing white scarves, walked quickly and said "toodle-pip", there weren't many places for motorsport. The Brooklands circuit changed that: motorcord.co.uk/a-brief-histor

  28. Brooklands Motor Museum holds a New Years Day car meet every year and they use one of the remaining sections of the old banked race track as one of the parking areas for attendees.

    I got this snap of a DMC DeLorean at such a meet a few years back as it slowly made its way to park up.

  33. BAC 1-11-475AM The BAC 1-11 was a moderately successful twin-engine jetliner (similar in configuration to the MD-80, Fokker 100, etc).
