Pity we never got a glimpse of the old bi-plane model that hung from the ceiling on the first floor in that video; I was always fascinated by that thing.
It's a replica of a Blériot XI monoplane that was built by Humber in Coventry in 1909, although it has an genuine Humber engine. You can still see it at the Midland Air Museum at Coventry Airport.
