Great old school video, narration, and happy 70’s music!
My older brother promised to take me to that airshow for weeks before when I was 9 (He was 18). On the day - he let me down - going just with his friends instead. When he came back later he said I wouldn't have enjoyed it because it rained the whole time. Interesting to see the video now.
My brother turned out to be a bit of a lying, cheating asshole. I learned to look out of the window if he said the Sun was shining. I Myself will not make promises that I cannot fulfil - a surprise is far better than a disappointment. I loved planes so much- Concorde, Harriers, Spitfires. I used to draw them all the time - I still can draw or paint them when I want to. Funny, I still remember the disappointment of being left at home that day. I learned a lesson, but not bitterness. Nice to see the show I missed, and the weather! Lol.
What a dick

My very first Farnborough at age seven. I continued to go religiously until the early 90s. Great memories.
How on earth did we achieve this level of innovation, commercial enterprise and military invention! 27 years after VE day.
Max your aircraft industry was a complete failure and had it not been for the government bailing their asses out you would have NOTHING !!!!
Wilbur Finnigan 27 years after VE day, just think what a great culture we have to produce such brilliant aeroplanes! You couldnot list them on one page. The error I made was ‘commercial enterprise’, we were very unlucky with the Comet. Successe occurred with the Anglo French Jaguar, Harrier, Lightning, Canberra, Folland Gnat, Hawk (in development) Hunter, Nimrod (Comet derivative) Anglo French Concorde, BAC 1-11, numbers of specialist lighter aeroplanes and helicopters. Yes the government supported business but that was our money and we were still paying for the enormous sacrifice made by mainly Britain, USA and our Commonwealth Nations to bail Europe out of Fascism. Sorry your point was?
The world’s first turbo-prop the Vickers Viscount, was a great success selling 500 across the world.
Wilbur Finnigan This clown hides behind various names "soaringtracter" being one of them,he's got some serious inferiority problems with British aviation,he's as pathetic as he is pitiable..
Just read Wilbur wrongs..... Oops Freudian slip there. That first troll like post.
Well. He is quite wrong of course. We HAD a great aircraft industry but the mid 60's government got involved and almost destroyed it.
See what I did there? Wilbur Wright.... WILBUR Wrong...... Geddit?
OK. Rubbish joke, no giving up on the day job 😂.
What a lovely trip back to my childhood!! Where it all started for me. I may even have been in the crowd for that Farnborough. Aviation still my passion to this day.
Thanks for a great post.
Me too at 7😊
Love the Hunter (my favourite jet of all time) and the Gnat.
Shame the Hawker Hunter got destroyed by a stupid pilot at Shoreham in 2015.
@@JourneywithSmee
Was that for real or staged?
Fly away, fly away, fly away to the sky !
la la la, la la la ... 🎼
Two of my all time favourite aeroplanes; the SEPECAT Jaguar (T.2) and the Britten Norman Trilander (short nose).
Mark Slater the Jaguar was a beast of an aircraft. It could carry 10 tons of Ordnance, both under its wings and inside the empennage.
They used to have a favourite phrase in the RAF, about the Jaguar, "it blows shit up, before blowing shit up, and then blows more shit up. And if there's any shit left, it will then blow that up as well."
@@RB747domme The other saying we had about the Jag was that the only reason it took off (when loaded up) was because the Earth is curved
Love the classic narration.
From a time when the aircraft were still flown by humans, and the music sounded like diet bread commercials.
When the UK actually still had an aviation industry.
Steve Broughton We still do? Second largest in the world, behind the US, thanks to Rolls-Royce, Airbus, BAe Systems, GKN etc.
And Brittan Norman!
Jack Routledge Britain provides parts to other countries for their aircraft, Britain doesn't make any aircraft of its own.
@@bobmarsh9571 Because there's no point. we fell behind the race, primarily in the civil market, and the US can easily out perform us in terms of military developments because of its huge budget. There's simply not much reason to build aircraft solely in country anymore in most cases, but instead it makes more sense to ocntribute sections, systems and parts to larger mulit-nation projects like Rolls royce's engines and the 15% of the F35 that BAE makes. If you look at the F35 B in particular, I wouldn't be suprised if the aircraft is somewhere in the 20-40% range, in terms of being built in the UK (considering the lift-fan system, the 15% and EW suite by BAE, ejection seat by martin baker and more). But then we still have aircraft like the Typhoon and hawk that are (mostly) made in the UK, as will tempest, assuming the government doesn't cancel it and opt to become a partner in either the US or EU project (considering we've already offered up £2 billion, and have 3 confirmed international partners for the project, I doubt it)
This was my first visit to Farnborough I've been a fanatic for the sbac since 1949
Wonderfully daft soundtrack!!
Yes the hip producer which might then been in their 50's wanted hip music from their youth and for their audience in the same age - dont tell me this dont happen today - it does but usually with music its 10 year delay - what new on clubs is used in about 10 years commercially.
Groovy daddyo.
Thought it was appalling!
Bulldog - 1:46 -- also used to grow tomatoes and cucumbers in when not in use
Great video, also love the 1970s intro music.
Went to that show on a coach, but spent too long stuck in show traffic so missed the vintage aviation part I really wanted to see. Most spectacular plane there was a Swedish (SAAB?) Fighter that seared the eardrums, but performed well.
2:52 I'm completely high right now. Alas, the groovy vibes take a dive at 4:30
Thanks for this 👍✈️
What an absolutely brilliant engineering culture that we have, still have it and now at least very commercially succesful.
Tristar in BEA'S livery, I was unaware they ever flew the L 1011!?!
Fantastic old video 😊
shorts sky van. i never flew until i took a ride on one when i was in the army. it was bumpy and noisy and felt like you were hanging in the air. the colonel had his entire office including his desk moved into one for an exercise in germany. like a flying command. he would land on open ground. see people within, then fly off to the next sector
Lockheed Tri stars L-1011 outstanding airliner.
The tristar was absolutely incredible for its time, how they used such old tech and were able to make the plane so automated and "smart" was quite the feat. It was one of the first planes that could literally takeoff and land by itself.
davidca96 the VC10 could do that also, mainly due to the fog that was always covering London. They made sure that the pilots could allow the plane to land itself safely even if they couldn't see fuck all out the window.
"Well ladies and gentlemen we are coming into land now, well, at least the plane is anyway, if you'd like to just fasten your seatbelts and grit your teeth a little while the plane lands itself with us not touching the controls.
Thank you for flying with Sunshine Holidays Ltd, and we hope to see you on another flight. If we survive."
Red Arrows flying the Folland Gnat!
6:52 - Nimrod flew with the Royal Air Force, not the Royal Navy!!
climbtherainbow it was actually registered as a maritime aircraft, and therefore came under the auspices of the Royal Navy.
All that actually meant, is that the budget for the Nimrod, came out of the Royal navy's coffers.
Christ look how low the red arrows ran as the synchro pair
Gostaria de saber o número do telefone do GENERAL CHRISTOPHER BOGDAN EUA
En 1972 todos usaban el mismo diseño de cabina
The trilander was called joey in the 80,s me and my family got one to jersey channel islands
Santa all the trilanders are retired, there is one that still remains on gsy as joey
Only one was Joey. On account of it reg
I was there, it rained, as usual.
But it was worth getting wet for!
YEEEESSSS CONCORDE 😆😆😆😆
"Tristar is going to be a world beater".... Yeah, that worked out well...
Yeah- kind of more like an earth-pounder.
Sailfire1 hindsight is always 20/20
Any idea what the song is called, starting at 2:51?
I am sure that if Short could have, they’d have not put a pointy front on their Skyvan, it so so spoilt the look ......phwah 😎
Jaguar..🥰
Concorde is the main bird here.
Hmmm - the Nimrod wasn't a Royal Navy aeroplane.
And no mention of the SAAB 105 belly landing.
EricIrl the maritime Nimrod, and sub Hunter, was paid for - at least the running budget anyway - by the Royal Navy. In the same way that the Royal Marines are not part of the army, the Nimrod budget came out of the Navy.
the music hasn't aged well.
I completed my 'Advanced Airframes' modules at RAF Halton in 1969 so have always had a soft spot for this type of aircraft.

I think this is probably the 1972ist thing I have ever seen.
6:55 Nothing quiet about the Nimrod, let me tell you. Loved the Skyvan. I built an Airfix model of this. None of the parts seemed to fit quite right.
If the parts didn’t fit right then that was an accurate kit.
Nimrod...Royal Navy???
casperk1w1 it was registered as a maritime aircraft, and as such the aircraft came under the auspices of the Royal Navy. Which just meant that the budget came out of the Royal Navy's coffers.
Liverpool Airport...A couple of Irish types based a SkyVan in the hangar next to ours...the reasoning was to turn it into an Arial Horse Box and fly the horses to the tracks...They put a Horse in it....started the engines...the Horse kicked all the windows out and demolished the interior.........so much for that idea....You played a Bum Note there Micheal..........
philip stien the transportation of race horses by air was all ready a commonplace activity by the 1950s as related by Arthur Whitlock in his book "Behind the Cockpit Door". Mr Whitlock piloted a Bristol Freighter carrying race horses, IIRC, to a race meeting in France. On route they started to have trim issues due to the grooms walking the horses around the fuselage to keep them calm.
Neil Dahlgaard-Sigsworth I'm pissing myself laughing just imagining the plane going up and down and all over the place while the horse walks around.
"Will you stop walking that fucking horse around, we keep going up 3000 feet and down 3000 feet every few seconds because of you tossers!"
'Air4586, this is Cardiff air traffic control, our radar currently shows you at FL260..270..280.. would you vector.. wait.. FL290.. 260.. 270.. vect- errmm.. FL240.. are you ok? ..'
Nowadays The Irish horses for Cheltenham Races fly into Birmingham Airport in a chartered Cargo 747 such is the money involved.
F***"""""" brilliant film...
Sacrilegious with failure to mention that the L1011 was the worlds 1st fully automatic take off and landing airliner.
Hakencruz no that'll be the Hawker Siddeley Trident.
Could be corrected on 1st's still no mention of the fact with the Tri star's capabilities
The 70's. A great era marred by naff cheesy music.
Well, the "musac" kind of stuff was. Wouldn't be surprised if the soundtrack on this footage wasn't a "Pearl & Dean" cast-off from 1970s cinema - something we all had to suffer, but strangely added to the anticipation of the movie itself as the curtains closed, before reopening. Luckily, Jaws had that slow, menacing "Dur - dun......dur - dun, quickening to a panicking heartbeat pace, rather than the cheerily machine-gunned pace of the "Dadadadad, dada da da da" in a Pearl & Dean commercial break. Middle of the road was pretty naff though.
And then punk cut a swathe through the briar patch! Lol
@@YAHUAHsgotmysix That it did, with such dulcet ditties as "Too drunk to f..." by 'the dead Kennedys' LoL

Yup. Hey SabreDog. You into real aviation, model kits or both? Check out the Unofficial Airfix Modellers forum.
Is that John Craven narrating?
Sounds like Michael Parkinson to me.
The narrator needs to get his aircraft identification correct. Just like the commenters of today!
Go on then aviation genius, what exactly did he get wrong???

I love aviation and Farnborough but that commentary made my teeth hurt!
Good grief singing is turn off...
John Noakes commentating
The poor British were obsessed with low payload high speed. "I'm all for it" economics were not.
