Blackburn Type D Monoplane from 1912 - Old Warden 2018

This is the oldest British aircraft flying in the UK currently. It was a one-off built in 1912. Although it is substantially original, the engine is almost modern, the original having being replaced with a 1916 model.

This aircraft doesn't fly very fast - a cantering horse could probably keep up!
