Amazing Aerospace
Amazing Aerospace - re-imagines and creates great aircraft of the past and looks into the future
to see what technology we will need to go further.
The Amazing Aerospace collection features:
Our lived experienced of air travel is influenced to a great extent by the aircraft that fly us to our destinations. Today we have squashy seats, small TVs, a wandering drinks trolley and funny smelling toilets. But the aircraft are still marvels of engineering and putting technology aside, every aircraft that flies has overcome significant industrial and political hurdles and had a “yes” said against countless decisions. So many great aircraft designs never leave the drawing board and yet if they had, our experience of air travel today could be very different.
The Amazing Aerospace collection re-imagines and creates some of the great aircraft of the past and looks into the future to see what technology we will need to go further.
The first Amazing Aerospace exhibition was held in September 2022 and focussed on technical plans and layouts.
Those plans were turned into 3D Blender models and used to create 'vintage travel posters from an alternative reality'. These travel posters became the core of the second Amazing Aerospace exhibition over December 2025 and January 2026.
Then between June and July 2026 the whole Amazing Aerospace collection was exhibited at the Peninsula Arts Society Foyer Gallery.
The physical pictures are currently not on display but all the images can be viewed on this website along with their back stories, how they were built in Blender and a companion fictional short story.
