Bruntingthorpe

It looks to be an uncertain future for the aircraft at Bruntingthorpe airfield after being bought out by the car storage company. The car storage capacity is planned to double and a spokesman said they were winding down use of the airfield for large aircraft, but its aircraft museum would be staying. Information on the museum website says it's closed to the public and they don't have a date set for re-opening. It doesn't look good for the warbirds.

The airport is also used for proving alterations to cars. A bit like Top Gear's "Star in a bog-standard car" segment.

Here's what the place looks like:

I tried to get there for their open day, but after the car crash in Dublin. we were too shocked to go anywhere by car. Sad end to a great holiday.

As an aside the video of that crash was put on FaceBook .
