Wolverhampton Aviation Group

Shawbury September 2008

Our final visit of 2008 to this storage and helicopter training base in Shropshire

As usual the superbly organised visit around here by the CRO was well received and fully subscribed by the group members. If you haven't been on a visit here it is highly recommended as the storage hangars house a vast collection of stored aircraft of various types.
