Hi guys, After many years I've finally gotten around to uploading some of my old 90's 8mm camcorder footage to my PC and thence to Youtube in some cases. As you will see, I'm no professional cameraman - or sound operator - but I hope you enjoy the subject matters for what they are. This link is to a Lancaster, Mosquito and Spitfire flypast at what I think was RIAT in about 1994, but to be honest I went to several shows and didn't keep notes of what I was shooting - oh for the gift of hindsight eh? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uy4ioILX4o8&feature=context&context=C3d4220bADOEgsToPDskJSqWeVo1ebL4uqUQf7Kop0 I know I've got other footage of things like an F-111 doing the famous dump and burn, a Spitfire and (new) Typhoon together, and one of the first four Typhoons built being put through it paces, and my personal favourite, the huge Su.30 at Farnborough in brown/tan scheme - the day I went the Su35 (similar camo scheme) blew and engine so I only have footage of that one being towed away in shame. Also got a flypast with a pair of VC10 tankers flanking a Tristar if anyone likes that sort of thing?! Let me know what you think. Cheers Al. |

I am sure I remember a Yeovilton airday way ,way, WAY back in the 70's that had a B17 a B24 ( possibly a glass nose one) a B25, Lancaster, Spits,Hurricains and a Mosquito! But I am old and my memory is failing. |
