Museum For Dunsfold
Jim McAllister, owner of Dunsfold Park, is submitting a planning
application for the construction of a museum recognising the site's
history. It is intended that the museum should house one of each of the
aircraft that were constructed and flown from Dunsfold Aerodrome, a
B-25 as flown by the Dutch from Dunsfold in WW 2, as well as other
historical memorabilia. Mr McAllister has already acquired a Sea
Harrier.
