Brooklands banking beauties.


Many of us will be heading for the banked race track at Montlhery as you read this and you may be sure there will be plenty of opportunities to view the photographs taken over the coming weekend.
The picture above was taken....

Thank you for that. It sure looked like Brooklands with the observation tower. I have seen several of the aircraft from the film at the Old Rhinebeck Aerodrome in Rhinebeck, New York. It's quite a museum, all the aircraft are in flying order including a Fokker D-7. There are several classic cars there including a Morgan 3-wheeler barrel-back (not sure of the correct model name) with a Matchless engine. They wouldn't sell it to me!

Brookley was a representation of Brooklands, it's a fictitious track, but, was quite a good copy of the early Brooklands.

It was filmed at an airfield near High Wycombe.

I recently watched the film, "Those Magnificent Men in their Flying Machines." Not long after I was at a vintage bus event at Brooklands. In the film, which I saw as a child, Brooklands is called "Brookley." I asked several people about that and no one knew. Does anyone know or should I have asked someone there who was older than 70?
