….. The last time I was up there must have been 10 years ago,in a dusty corner was a glass cabinet. In the cabinet was the Schlesinger African Air Race trophy from 1936, the 1953 London to Christchurch air race trophy, one of the MacRobertson air race trophys and some Schneider Trophy’s that were given to the pilots. I was transfixed as none were labeled and took me a good half hour to work them out. Probably in a dusty corner at Stafford now? Anybody know what is in the galleries now?

Still there, slightly revised, in space kindly allocated to Royal Aero Club items. We are hoping to rearrange things a little and improve the labelling
