There is some speggtacular Easter Family Fun at Brooklands this April with an Easter Egg Trail that will keep visitors entertained every day from 30th March \u2013 15th April. During this period visitors will be able to collect their free Trails on arrival, head off around the Museum to solve the hidden clues, and then back to the Shop to claim their FREE chocolate prize.<\/p>\n
And there are plenty of other Easter attractions at the Museum to keep visitors absorbed for the rest of their visit once they\u2019ve solved the Trail clues. The Museum\u2019s long-established and hugely popular rides in vintage-style cars and on London Bus Museum\u2019s iconic double-decker buses will also be operating during weekdays from 3rd \u2013 13th April. Car rides take in the challenging summit of Test Hill and the Members\u2019 Banking, the steepest part of the original Race Track, as long as it\u2019s not too wet or slippery. Or, for a more relaxed journey, hop on board a real double-decker bus for a bus trip through the surrounding streets. Car and bus rides will run in the mornings and afternoons with a short break for lunch and are subject to crew and vehicle availability.<\/p>\n
The Concorde Experience is a half-hour virtual supersonic \u2018flight\u2019 on the Brooklands Concorde and runs every day, but on each weekday from 3rd \u2013 13th April, special Kids Tours will be running twice a day. And don\u2019t forget to look out for the Museum\u2019s larger than life mascot, Bertie Bear, who will be roaming the site looking for fans to have his photograph taken on weekdays 3rd \u2013 13th April. The Brooklands Learning Team will be running two FREE drop-in workshops for youngsters: from 3rd \u2013 6th April they can test how much cargo a paper plane can take while from 9th \u2013 13th April they can have a go at painting their own Pompom Easter Egg to take home.<\/p>\n
All of the Museum\u2019s regular displays and exhibitions will be open for families to explore including the new Brooklands Aircraft Factory and Flight Shed. Inside the newly restored Bellman hangar, visitors can \u2018clock in\u2019 and don factory workcoats as they begin their \u2018Brooklands Apprenticeship\u2019. A series of workshops and interactives explore some of the skills used over the 80-year history of aircraft manufacture at Brooklands. On a new mezzanine level, the story of aviation design at Brooklands is told and visitors can design their own military and civilian aircraft from different eras of aviation including those of the future. Leaving the Factory and entering the new Flight Shed visitors can see some of the Museum\u2019s collection of complete aircraft, including opportunities to sit in the cockpits of the Hawker Hunter and Harrier, as well as displays on radar, ground-to-air radio and pioneering pilots.<\/p>\n
