Welcome to the OLDEST flying in the World! This 1911 Blériot XI was manufactured approximately 3 months prior to that held at Old Rheinbeck, New York, USA. This aircraft is part of the Shuttleworth Collection based on the grass airfield at Old Warden, , . It is fitted with a three-cylinder 'fan configuration' air-cooled Anzani engine. Due to the significance of this XI , its flights are strictly limited to straight 'hops' down the length of the grass at Old Warden, during certain public events.
