Historic Aero Engines
Welcome.
This Youtube channel is dedicated to sharing a passion of our group; the research, restoration and ground running of a collection of historic aero engines. The engines shown in these videos are privately owned and run by an international group of like minded aero engineering enthusiasts.
Some of these videos were recorded at public events where HAE were invited to ground run the engines. Events are attended on a non-profit basis with the hope of engaging as many public who freely visit our display to learn of our aero engineering heritage.
See our Facebook page for details, photos, videos and upcoming bookings, or contact us for more information. Thank you.
