Brilliant movie of the good old days of the Farnborough Airshow when it was all British.
Each year there would be new types on display with lots of very noisy displays when a fast fly by really was a FAST fly by.
It was all very exciting and we all seemed to be proud to be British.
In those days it was a real treat to go to the SBAC show, what a contrast to now when it is held every other year, has very little British content and, apart from things like that Russian jobby that demonstrated a jet doing a tailslide then lighting the fires up and carrying on flying! can be quite boring.
