The Freddie March Spirit of Aviation display saw an incredible line-up of aircraft manufactured up to 1966. 1st place was awarded to John Romain’s Westland Lysander G-CCOM (V9312). 2nd Place was Richard Menage’s classic trainer, Tiger Moth G-ASPV. 3rd Place was Matthew de Morgan’s Spitfire Mk IXc G-BRRA (MK912). This aircraft was the first to land in France after D-Day having suffered damage by flak forcing a landing for repairs before returning home.
A new prize in 2021 honoured a much-missed member of the team here at Goodwood. Rob Wildeboer worked in our aviation business for 35 years, beginning as a YTS apprentice and rising to be MD of the aviation business and Flying School Manager. Rob was instrumental in establishing and curating the Freddie March Spirit of Aviation display. The Rob Wildeboer Cup will each year be awarded to the best restoration of an aircraft in the Freddie March Spirit of Aviation, as chosen by his colleagues. A fitting tribute to Rob’s lifelong passion for engineering. The 2024 winner of the Rob Wildeboer Cup for best restoration was awarded to Peter Monk’s Hurricane G-CHTK (AE977).

Freddie March, Duke of Richmond's grandfather, has a fascinating history mostly revolving around the worlds of motor racing and aviation. The Freddie March Spirit of Aviation seeks to celebrate his connection with flight, whilst also giving a nod towards Goodwood Motor Circuit's period as RAF Westhampnett during the Second World War.
