The Guardian
|August 12, 2024
The first permanent exhibition recording the role played by Windermere in the history of the development of aeroplanes will be officially opened this month.

It explains how the first flights taking off from water in the UK happened on the Cumbrian lake and how this later led to the building of a flying boat factory on its shores during the second world war.
The exhibition has been organised by the Waterbird Project, which has also announced dates of new flights of the unique replica of the first UK seaplane early next month.
