Searching through the Manchester Museum of Science and Industry website (looking for the opening times for the dinosaur exhibition!) I found this interesting link; <a href="http://www.msim.org.uk/realvideo/trident28.ram" target="_blank">http://www.msim.org.uk/realvideo/trident28.ram</a> which is a history of the Trident.

The Manchester display is superb....and not just for aeroplanes.

PP - thanks for posting this. An interesting video.. .I had no idea that the Trident was the first airliner to perform an automatic landing. Quite a feat!. .Seems like an interesting museum. Next time I'm out that way I'll have to check it out. Always a little sad when aircraft "make their final landings".
