Log of the Brooklands Museum at 20dec2018. Most info can be found on their website.
For some reason I thought my log below was all to be seen in the museum. Only when entering the log in my database I seemed to have missed some aircraft. I missed 2 locations!! The Flight Shed and the Avro Shed.
A 3rd location, the Vickers building I did check but it was closed and seemed to be accessible by appointment only.
I've listed the aircraft in these 3 locations below as well with what should be present but not noted.
