Intrepid Aviation

Not to be confused with Intrepid Aviation (company).

Intrepid Aviation is an aviation museum based at North Weald Airfield in North Weald, Essex, England. It was founded by David Gilmour of the rock band Pink Floyd to own and operate his collection of historic aircraft.

Gilmour sold the company after it became more and more commercial and less of a hobby:[1]

Intrepid Aviation was a way for me to make my hobby pay for itself a little bit, but gradually over a few years Intrepid Aviation became a business because you have to be businesslike about it. Suddenly I found instead of it being a hobby and me enjoying myself, it was a business, and so I sold it. I don't have Intrepid Aviation any more. I just have a nice old biplane that I pop up, wander around the skies in sometimes...
