Surviving Aircraft
No original Bristol Boxkites aeroplanes survive today, although three authentic flyable reproductions were created for the film Those Magnificent Men in Their Flying Machines. One was sent to the Bristol City Museum and Art Gallery a second to the Shuttleworth Collection in Bedfordshire, which is still flown during their flying displays whenever the weather permits, and the third to the Museum of Australian Army Flying in Queensland.
