Hawker Typhoon Event - 7 & 8 August

We’re delighted to be teaming up with the Hawker Typhoon Preservation Group for this exciting weekend at the Wendover Gallery.

8 August 2021

There’ll be special Typhoon artwork available PLUS a WWII veteran who flew Typhoons and is able to sign items for collectors:

 

Flying Officer BERNARD GARDINER

Volunteering for the RAF in October 1940, he completed pilot training and joined 193 Squadron initially flying Hurricanes before transferring to 257 Squadron equipped with Typhoons. Here he flew his first mission on 5 October 1944 and stayed with the unit until the end of the war carrying out ground attack missions against enemy transport and battlefield targets across France.
