Description

Owned and operated by The Shuttleworth Colection, G-EBWD was built in 1928 and was initially used by the Brooklands School of Flying. Richard Shuttleworth learnt to fly in 'BWD which he purchased in 1932 as his first aeroplane. It was originally powered by a 65hp Cirrus I engine but in 1933 Richard re-engined 'BWD with a 105hp Cirrus Hermes II. Since it was bought by Richard, it has been based continuously at one aerodrome (Old Warden) for longer than any other aeroplane in aviation history. 'BWD escaped being impressed into the RAF during the Second World War and survived in storage at Old Warden. Since the war, 'BWD has performed regularly at flying displays at Old Warden. c/n 552. Seen on the morning of the 2013 Autumn Airshow. Old Warden. 06-10-2013
