new aviation exhibition
New for 2010, Goodwood introduced the ‘Aviation Exhibition’ as part of the hugely popular Festival of Speed. This inaugural Aviation Show was initially planned to be held within the grounds of Goodwood Park as an important addition to the annual Festival of Speed, which is set to take place this year over four days, from 1-4 July.
Due to overwhelming demand from exhibitors, however, this Aviation Exhibition will now be held at the Goodwood Aerodrome – less than half a mile from the main Festival of Speed site – to accommodate larger aircraft and more exhibitors. All Festival of Speed ticket buyers will be given free access into the Goodwood Aviation Show, and a free shuttle service will transfer Festival and Aviation Show visitors the short distance to and from the Aerodrome and Goodwood Park.
Visitors will be able to visit the stands of manufacturers of fixed wing and rotary aircraft – plus important aviation service suppliers – and see their latest products on display. They may also have the opportunity to climb aboard on an evaluation flight, at the invitaion of the manufacturers. Exhibitors already confirmed to be attending the Goodwood Aviation Show include Hawker and Beechcraft, Pilatus, Honeywell, Patriot Aviation and Conciair.
Since its introduction in 1993, the Festival of Speed has grown to become the world’s leading celebration of transportation for enthusiasts, with the prime focus being automotive, but other modes of transport also being celebrated, from pedal cycles, right through to high speed boats and aircraft. The event consistently attracts more than 150,000 visitors over three days, with the daily air displays – ranging from the Red Arrows to the UK public debut of the Air Bus in flight – being one of the most popular attractions.
