Thanks for that great link, magpienja!
On a vaguely similar theme I bought an excellent DVD from Video 125 (from ebay or Amazon) which is a collection of 6 "Look at Life" films called Civil Aviation, highly recommended! The "Spirit of Brooklands" film looks at the VC 10 and "City of the Air" looks at Heathrow. There are some lovely period shots throughout the films and include such sights as the lovely BEA split-level airport coaches.
