Has anybody else hereabouts got the original pressing of this free CD on vinyl??
“Salute in Sound” narrated by Douglas Bader
Presumably it was produced in 1968 as a celebration of the 50th Anniversary of the RAF. Must be 30 years since I last heard it

I also have the Bader L/P,
They appear on E-bay every so often, but iv’e never tracked them to see how much they go for, my copy is from boot sale and is very ‘tired’ though well worth having.
I seem to recall a vinyl single? which featured the late / great Neil Williams advertised in the aviation press….does anyone have this or did i dream it ? 1970’s ?

They send them out a month before and either at the very end of the month before or early in the month. That is in the uk, i would guess that the overseas subsribers get them slightly later due to shipping time.

Looks like the overseas subscribers are going to have to wait……….

Er, what free Flypast cd ? :confused:
There should be one taped to the front cover in a plastic sleeve.

I also have the original in its sleeve, can’t recall when or where I bought it but it would have been back in 68 when it came out I guess.

I’ve got the vinyl LP and the original sleeve. I think it cost 14/6p when I bought it new in 1968.

I must admit to listening to it today during a lecture!!
Magnificent thought Key- much apreciated!

I have it, but only the actual LP, not the sleeve/cover. I found it randomly shoved in a sleeve with another, totally unrelated, record that my Grandad had.
Strangely enough I was thinking about digging it out just the other day, so getting the Flypast CD has made my day.

I’m sure I’ve got it – but can’t lay my hands on it at the moment.
I also have in my LP collection the three vols of “Wings of History” officially endorsed by the Shuttleworth Collection.
Vol. 1 Sounds at Shuttleworth (1976)
Vol. 2 Return to Shuttleworth (1976)
Vol. 3 Rendezvous: Shuttleworth (1977)
Additionally “The Sounds of the Aeroplane at War” – the first section combat recordings, the second individual aircraft (some recorded post-war).
Got other aviation-related records but it’ll bore you to death :p
