I’ve just found a couple of very interesting Fairey Rotodyne clips, one without sound and the other a full Fairey promotional job. It’s amazing to see this thing in flight, just watch the pattern of smoke from the rotor tips as the tip jets fire up in flight! It also shows the Rotodyne doing some heavy lifting work with a pre-fab bridge slung underneath! Such a shame there’s only a few bits and pieces left of her today.
