Following its restoration, Donald Campbell's legendary hydroplane is set for a historic run, marking a new chapter in its storied legacy.

Donald Campbell's iconic Bluebird K7 hydroplane, which crashed in 1967, will run again on Coniston Water.
The Ruskin Museum in Coniston has announced plans for the hydroplane's return, following its restoration.
Bluebird K7 was unveiled in its new home at the museum, close to where Campbell is buried, amid a warm reception from over 1,000 people.
Gina Campbell, Donald's daughter, expressed fulfillment in bringing Bluebird back to Coniston, honoring her father's legacy.
The hydroplane previously reached speeds of 150mph on Loch Fad in Scotland during a 2018 test run.
