There was even earlier flying there -

Airman's Cross "commemorates the site of a military aviation accident on July 5, 1912, in which Captain Eustace Loraine and his passenger Staff Sergeant Richard Wilson became the first members of the newly formed Royal Flying Corps to lose their lives while flying on duty. "

Not sure if it helps or not, but the book "Stonehenge: Celebration and Subversion" by Andy Worthington is a fabulous resource for research on Stonehenge and the celebrations and gatherings that have happened there throughout history.

Had to laugh at the part that talks about the battles at Stonehenge during the 50's when Trad Jazzers fought with those who were into new jazz. Lots of great research and stories in the book. Discovered it during my research for my MA.
