For those of you who have Sky, or at least access to the above, there is a new programme being shown tomorrow called “Classic British Aircraft”. First showing at 6.00pm, repeated at 9.00pm, but I don’t know what the subjects are. Might be worth a look?

The Buccaneer is covered in one of the programs and includes a fast run down Brunty’s runway in the footage shot at last open day.

Hi,
Among the aircraft to be covered are;
VC10
Meteor
Shackleton
Gladiator
Vampire
Twin Pioneer
The series will be in 10 parts with each part covering two aircraft. I had a complete list but don’t know where I put it. The series covers British aircraft that were heavily used but didn’t receive the publication due to them, so there will be no Spitfires, Hurricanes and Lancasters.
I had the privilage to help with the Gladiator episode.
