Heston, located in Bray near Maidenhead, Berkshire, holds a rich history within the aviation world. From its early days at Croydon Airport with the de Havilland DH. 84 Dragon G-ACIU to hosting the Lockheed Model 12A Electra Junior G-AEOI, it has been a hub for aviation enthusiasts. The GLC-LFB appliance fleet's foam tender was a sight to behold at Heston Aerodrome, showcasing their dedication to safety and firefighting capabilities. Meanwhile, renowned American actor Charlton Heston left his mark on this place as well - not only through his name but also through an intriguing poster of British-American Air Services Ltd. Marjorie Vereker and Adelaide Cleaver were instrumental figures at Heston Aerodrome, contributing significantly to its success. Their efforts were recognized alongside the Youngman-Baynes High-Lift VT789 aircraft that graced the skies above. Even lady members of the Heston Park flying club made their mark here, breaking barriers and proving that passion for aviation knows no gender boundaries. The aerodrome became a symbol of inclusivity and empowerment under their influence. Brigadier-General and Mrs A. C. Lewin embarked on an unforgettable journey from Heston back home - a testament to how this place served as a starting point for countless adventures. Today, when we think of "Heston, " it is not just about one company or location; it represents an era filled with innovation and dreams taking flight.
