Great video. Aircraft before my time but I recognise the manufacturers and the next generations of model. Shame the Pathe music means the engine sound is muted. It would have been great to hear those prototypes.
Weren’t we bloody good at designing and building aircraft, or should I say we were bloody good at a lot of things back then. It makes me very sad 😢, angry 😡 and bemused that our government let the British aviation industry go to the wall, political intervention was needed but political considerations meant buying military equipment and lots of other things from abroad, and it also makes me very proud knowing that we have, and will again, built the best aircraft in the world, despite our political masters screwing it all up.
I think it's brilliant, although a little meandering in places and random in others. Could use a little more of a thematic approach - for instance, a theme per aircraft. Does tend to go on a bit. Franz Reizenstein is the composer, BTW - German-born, but settled in the UK in 1934.
@missasinenomine Ghastly, isn't it?...certainly not an appropriate choice for a Farnborough documentary! Those screeching violins 🎻 belong in a 1920s horror movie 🎬
@@steveashforth5097 THEY are the globalists who throw away the strategic independence of all European countries as a step towards dissolving all nations into their borderless world run as a single administrative unit of collectivized global feudalism under a one world government. Under the 30 years of European Joint Defence Procurement Agreements, the Royal Navy is dependent on spare parts which are only made outside Britain, this is why more than half the Royal Navy vessels are rafted up in dock waiting for spare parts from foreign countries who effectively control our Navy. The same applies to the Royal Air Force and British Atomic Energy, the operation and maintenance of all Britain's nuclear power generators (civilian and military) also depend on parts which are only made outside Britain under the "Euratom" agreements. This is how global imperialists predators have used the EU to colonizing Britain with the full assistance of successive UK governments which the British people foolishly kept on voting for because we were asleep at the wheel for far too long.
@@steveashforth5097 The 1957 white paper you refer to probably emerged as part of the "Treaty of Rome" signed on 25th March 1957 which is considered as the foundation act of the European Community. The globalist plan to abolish the nation state is far older. Arnold Toynbee was a close colleague of Lord Milner within the inside circle who put Britain into the Boer War and World War One (Arnold Toynbee is also grandfather of TV personality Poly Toynbee). Toynbee said at the Scientific Study of International Relations at Copenhagen in June 1931, (published in INTERNATIONAL AFFAIRS, December 1931): "We are at present working discreetly but with all our might, to wrest this mysterious force called 'sovereignty' out of the clutches of the local national states of our world. And all the time we are denying with our lips what we are doing with our hands, because to impugn the sovereignty of the local national states of the world is still a heresy for which a statesman or a publicist can be, perhaps not quite burnt at the stake, but certainly ostracized and discredited."
My dad used to stress to me, 'look forward, not back'! But, somehow these days, I just can't stop looking back! Sorry, dad!
It's amazing to see the Hawker Hunter first flight in 1951, and the last retired from military service in 2014.
wonderful music and love the early fighter designs all graceful curves
AWFUL music!!!
British aircraft designers came up with some interesting models!
So many marquees. I was there.
The old Vickers Viscounts were flying us up to Sumburgh into the 1990's
Nice to see the Avro 707 A/B variants. The test-aircraft which were instrumental in the development of the Avro 698 AKA the VULCAN :)
Thanks for the info, Drew!
Nice to see Roly Falk flying the Avro 707s in his lounge suit, shirt and tie, his chosen attire for test flying! Those were the days.
The Vickers Valiant..although not a really a Delta or Cresent wing was actually a significqnt development of the conventional.

I was there, saw them all. So privileged,. All I see now are F16, f22 and f35s
Many cars there surprising
2:12 “Zurabatic Cartwheel”
He's a great pilot!
Thankya. Saved me digging through the whole video to find this!
Prototype valiant

Weren't any bloody good at selling the things though or designing to a price point to make profits.....
@@soaruk3697 , so very very true sadly, just part of the reasons for the industry almost disappearing.
The Birtish governments has sent the whole country to the wall
The UK aerospace industry (aka Bae Systems) is doing very well indeed. Produces tons of new and innovative stuff, which is sold worldwide.
Brabazon in the background.
One of my American mates had an argument with my about the pronunciation.
It’s bloody Fahn-brah i tell him
Some of these planes just seem so wacky, something Howard Hughes would construct.
Ghastly discordant music!

‘Turbins’ 😂
The most pathetic musical soundtrack I've EVER heard in an aircraft documentary. 🙄
Not pathetic. AWFUL!!

And they threw it all away for absurdly expensive rubbish like the Eurofighter which is either too big for some tasks and too small for other tasks.
Who are "they"? And what did they "throw away"? I'd hardly call the Eurofighter "rubbish".

@@dreamdiction Wow! And here's me thinking it was Duncan Sandys' white paper of 1957 that destroyed the British aerospace industry.
