Hi

If you search the IWM research section they have interesting recordings – for example a three part audio instruction on Standard Beam Approach and ‘R/T how it should not be done’ – sadly these are jealously guarded on ‘copyright’ grounds (belonging to our government that we pay for possibly?) with an extra ring fence in that it has not been copied yet….

I recently contacted the English (nee British) Film Institute BFI as a search revealed that they had a film on SBA, their reply was odd in that “we do not hold a viewing copy of this title.” but asked me to make an appointment to view… But the interesting point, and one relevant to this thread (finally!), is the statement “By the way we are a completely separate organisation from the BBC but do hold their programmes in the Archive.”

So perhaps checking what the BFI hold might find many interesting originals – but be prepared to travel to see them.
