Fascinating tour of iconic local history
Farnborough Historic Wind Tunnels的点评
点评：What a joy to find these facilities preserved for posterity, having played a significant role in aviation (and motorsport) research and development for such a long period of time.
After an introduction and short video, volunteers Steve and Richard took pains to impart their extensive knowledge and experience while explaining the function of each of the remaining tunnels and the associated measuring equipment.
The workmanship and ingenuity of the engineers who originally built and developed these tunnels is humbling. The scale of the larger tunnel is breathtaking.
A civil engineer in our gang was scratching his head trying to work out how the 24' openings in the reinforced larger tunnel could have been created in situ.
We got to poke our heads inside the enormous settling chamber of the 4x3 tunnel, and to explore its control room. And we walked around inside the 24' tunnel, squeezing between the turning vanes at corners 1 and 2 to bring us back to the inside of the enormous fan.
The above barely scratches the surface of the tour which I can't recommend highly enough.

翻译：这些设施在如此长的时间内发挥了航空（和赛车运动）研究和发展方面的重要作用，能够为后人保留下来，真是令人欣喜。
在介绍和短片之后，志愿者史蒂夫和理查德不辞辛劳地传授他们丰富的知识和经验，同时解释每个剩余隧道和相关测量设备的功能。
最初建造和开发这些隧道的工程师的工艺和独创性令人谦卑。大隧道的规模令人叹为观止。
我们团队中的一名土木工程师正在绞尽脑汁，试图弄清楚如何在加固的大隧道中现场创建 24 英尺的开口。
我们得把头伸进 4x3 隧道巨大的沉降室，探索它的控制室。我们在 24 英尺的隧道里走了一圈，挤在 1 号和 2 号拐角处的转向叶片之间，把我们带回到巨大风扇的内部。
以上只是这次旅行的冰山一角，我强烈推荐。
