Old BA/BEA promotional films

A few years ago, there was a re-release of some very old (60s and 70s) films done by BOAC and BEA, back in the days when airlines actually cared about their history and generating an interest in aviation.

Some of these were particularly good; I recall one about VC10 circuit training Shannon and another featuring the 707 (including G-APFE, which later crashed near Tokyo). There were many more.

Does anyone know if it's possible to get these on DVD?

I was reminded because there's an excellent article in this month's Airways about the BOAC 707s.

even older

When I was at school in 1958 a film was shown about airline ticketing (codesharing?)
Lots of Connies and DC6s featured in it. It was produced for Esso, I think it was in colour and 16mm. Is that on DVD?
