I remember in my youth hitch hiking across country UK on a perfect spring day to Biggleswade (great name that). On the way to the Shuttleworth collection.
At the time, on those country lanes, there was a car perhaps every 15 minutes. They always stopped. Mostly army guys, and one grand mother with a car so small I could hardly get in.
On leaving Shuttleworth a guy picked me up that turned out to be the Bristol Boxkite pilot. Shuttleworth houses the planes from "Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines". His glove box was full of goggles and leather flying helmets.
