This Varsity was first delivered to the RAF in January 1952. On 25 Mar 1976 it was flown to Sibson, Peterborough, UK with Varsity WJ909, to be used as a clubhouse or a diner. These plans did not materialise and the aircraft was stored there until in 1984 the Nene Valley Aviation Society took it under its care. It remained preserved at Sibson for four more years until delivered from there to the Brooklands Museum on 13 Nov 1988.

The forward fuselage section arrived at Brooklands 14 November 2013 and was gutted out by volunteers to represent a Viscount during construction. The external condition was poor so it was decided to paint it in 'non-authentic' primer to make it more presentable. It is now in the refurbished Grade II listed WWII (1940) Bellman hangar as part of the 'Aircraft Factory' exhibition which was opened by Prince Michael of Kent 13 November 2017.

This is a replica of the aircraft that won the 1914 Schneider Trophy race as number '3' and was flown by Howard Pixton at an average speed of 86.75 mph (139.6 km/h) along the coast at Monaco. After he completed the course he opened up the throttle and flew another two laps and achieved a speed of 92 mph (148 km/h), which set a new world record for seaplanes. The replica was handed over to the museum 27 November 2013.

This is a composite fuselage that was found being used as a garden shed. When N2980 was recovered from Loch Ness in 1985 parts of this were used in its restoration and some badly corroded parts of N2980 were used to keep the integrity of this. It is a walk through exhibit at this splendid museum.

This first flew on 27th May 1953 as an F.1 to F.4 conversion. On 5th July 1953 it made a record breaking flight from London to Paris in 19mins 5seconds. Shortly afterwards it broke the world absolute speed record at 737.7mph in Libya. Little is known of its service career but it displayed at Farnborough and was used by Vickers for trials. Retired on 1st January 1957 it ended up in a scrapyard near Manchester and it was by pure chance that it was found there. (Info from Thunder and Lightnings website)
