22nd November

Annual London Westway Rover Group meet up at RAF Hendon in Colindale.

This very enjoyable event is now in it’s 6th year and tempting the weather gods again as they have been enormously kind to us so far!

Meet in the car park for 10.00 a.m. for a chat in the brisk autumn morning before venturing into the vast museum and it’s four hangers for a perusal of the aircraft on show. The cafe is now incorporated permanently in the restaurant but refreshments are still available or you can have a full meal if you so desire.

We generally try to get to the venue early enough to park near each other but this is never guaranteed and we occasionally end up with some modern vehicle insisting on parking in amongst us.

You can prebook on the RAF Hendon website, entry to the Museum is free but parking is at £11 for 6 hours. Alternatively, you can simply pay on the machines at the exit. They operate an ANP system but our old cars often confuse the software. However simply pay the amount for the time you stay and its all good. I do not believe anyone has fallen foul of the system so far!

Please refer to the museum's website by clicking HERE.

Last year we attracted our largest group yet and were delighted to be joined by an MGBGT, an open topped Armstrong Siddeley and a host of Austins and Morris’s. It sets a high bar for this year!

Remember, it’s inside the ULEZ so modern cars are subject to this but not our Historics!
