BAE Systems has donated the final three aircraft in its heritage collection to the Shuttleworth Trust. The agreement means that de Havilland DH.60 Cirrus Moth G-EBLV, Blackburn B2 G-AEBJ and Avro Anson C19 G-AHKX will be preserved and flown under the ownership of the Bedfordshire-based charity. As part of the transfer agreement, BAE Systems is also donating £75,000 towards the upkeep of the aircraft. The Shuttleworth Trust's executive director Tim Routsis said: "We are delighted to have worked with BAE Systems on this transfer of ownership. Ensuring that the aircraft remain at Shuttleworth for all to enjoy was something at the forefront of our minds and we will be welcoming them back to the skies above Old Warden very soon."
