Wonderful to see these oldies. Thanks for sharing👍🏻👍🏻

Great footage many thanks.

I was Chief Rescueman in the back of Rescue 1...the Fire Crew landrover at the end of runway 23...seen here.

Great upload thank you for sharing😊👍👍😊

Очень интересное видео, спасибо! Музыка супер.

Ah yes, from when we had an air force.

I was stationed at RAF Leuchars at this time as a Ground Wireless Mechanic. Just returned from RAF Muharraq in Bahrain.

I flew in two of those types.

6 months before I was posted there, but I went as a spectator, a month before I had got a jolly in one of the target towing Canberra's, not the one in the film but WJ715.

Great....what an amazing aircraft.....only thing mising here is Stacia dancing to the music....

Thanks for that I was there that day can smell the rain and the hot avgas smell

Great to see the Red Arrows in their original Gnats

A great slice of our aviation history paired with some great music too. Many thanks.

Great memories and, considering the kit available (16mm Cine?), a great video. Thanks for posting.

Airshows back in the 70’s & 80’s. Nothing quite like the roar from those Rolls Royce Avons. Incredible piece of kit.

I was there in 1966 but had just moved to New Zealand in 1969. Thanks for the memory.

Wow, great stuff! Such a wide selection of aircraft. Loved the Gnat but the Hawk looks so modern and still does.

I was there then. Worked in JASF. Before that, I worked in the VASF section on all those different types. Fantastic times.

Now that’s an airshow!

The beautiful Fairey Gannets and Aermacchi MB-326H 😊

Oh…….Fiat G 91s…….Lufwaffe…… our Jags…… what a brilliant video. I loved our trips down to Decci with 20 and II(AC)…….the year(s) of the cat! Thank you for posting this……..brilliant stuff

Wow ❤❤🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧

I was 6 years old, and can still remember the shows,went to everyone right up to them closing,even went to the charity ball the year there was no airshow and Lorraine Kelly was there and nick nairn was the chef. So many different types off aircraft that sadly all gone now Those were the days

Fantastic film!! Back in 1958 3 teenagers from Aberdeen entered the Lossiemouth by sneaking under a fence at the north end,near the golf course. The main attraction was a "graveyard" of old RNAS aircraft.We recognised about 10 different types..Sea Vampires,Seafires,Sturgeons,Fireflies...can't remember them all.Then 2 Blue Land Rovers came from nowhere and with the help of dogs,they rounded us up.Their main concern was how we'd entered,so we showed them,then we were given a stern warning and were driven to the Main Gates.Glorious memories.

Fascinating slice of history - thank you for posting this. (Great choice of music too!)

fantastic footage & to think the Hunter is still flying today

fanatsic vid, used to love watching F-111F's flying out of Lakenheath & F-111E's out of Upper Heyford,luckily the 20 TFW commanders F-111 is beautifully preserved on display at the IWM Duxford

All metal finish Javelin…never seen that before.

What a great archive!! Great post!👍🏻

We used to travel over from RAF Kinloss which had Shackletons based there that our fathers flew in.

Superb. Love it.

I was there as an ATC cadet on an Annual Camp, I was lucky enough to be sat in the control tower watching all the aircraft coming in for the display. I particularly remember the Constellation as it was ancient even back then. In the preceeding days a Starfighter had folded an undercarriage leg on landing and slid to an undignified stop. A mate of mine ( a Cadet) was sat in the runway control caravan at the time, ran with a fire extinguisher and beat the crash crew to the scene. He caught an almighty bollocking from the Sergeant in charge of the fire team but eventually went home clutching a "Well Done" certificate.

I was there as a member of the 20TFW F-111E team. Bomb-Nav.

Great video. Thanks for sharing.

When Britain still had an air force !!

In a time when we had a 'Force'!! Look at all those frames! 🙂

After completing my 3 years of training, I became an Aircraft Engineering Technician & was posted onto 23 (Red Eagle) Squadron ( You don't see many of them until near the end of the film - They are the ones with the vertical Blue & Red bars, either side of the nose roundel ) @ Leuchars in mid September 1967.Just as they were converting from Mk.3s ( small ventral tank) to interim 6s (large ventral tank), then eventually on to full mk.6s with an arrestor hook. Like all "newbies" I started off doing 1st line sevicing ( daily inspection @ beginning & end of day & turn rounds between flights.) After I got up to speed there, I was "promoted" to 2nd line/hangar servicing. That's when life got all rather serious as the "superuior idiot" who designed them, knowingly didn't give a damn about lack of accessibility - & while he got chewed out @ the time, refused to solve the problem. Whereas, our view was whoever designed it should have had to work on them '@ hangar level, for ' least a year, just to see how bad it REALLY was (At my time 60 man hours servicing for every ONE flying hours - Eventually it got so bad that became a ratio of 90:1 ! ). - There's no denying it was all VERY character building ! But even with playing locally arranged "war games" every Friday, "Tacevals" - 3 day long TACTICAL EVALUATION exercise, about 3 times a year & more than my fair share of real Q.R.A. (Quick Reaction Alert ) see offs, armed with live missiles, to intercept Russian reconnaisance bombers "somewhere over the Faroes gap" Certainly the intensity of it all is still something I'll always remember with fond memories. Certainly # 23 was the best ever posting I got ! :) After that I was posted to #56 Sqdn @ Akrotiri in Cyprus. The sunshine & sea, along with a slight boost in pay for "Local Overseas Allowance was good, but the squadron suffered from a serious morale problem as the C.O. was after "glory & promotion", @ everybody else's expense. Though towards the end they started to recognise that & I got a "jolly" up in the " T bird" (Mk5 trainer) & a chance to earn my certificate for going "10 ton" - 1,000 mph ! :) - helped a bit to make up for the rest of it !

The kit on display then was alot more diverse than it is now.

The Swiss Airforce used Vampires. Flying from Gatwick to Basel got speaking to an Ex Swiss 🇨🇭Airforce Pilot. Amazing video those were the days when the Airwing was huge and varied

Great to see,

Magnificent

I was at that show on a school trip. Great memories.

What a brilliant display aircraft they had in the 60s

Typical Leuchars weather, good choice of music

I was stationed at Leeming 1956-59 with Javelin 228 OCU. Hairy scary aircraft were the Javs . ‘Night flying Blues’ on a dark dreary cold airfield with RAF Fire Service. Great memories.

The Red Arrows in Gnats - wonderful!

That brings back Memories. I was on 763Sqn (Hunters). I must have been there at the Time the Films were made. I later changed to the RAF and was there for 8 Years on 8Sqn Shackletons.

Thank you for this up load takes me right back to happier times.😊❤😊❤

The days when they RAF had interesting aircraft

Nothing can beat the low pass just below the speed of sound and then the pull up to infinity (well almost!). You heard nothing then the roar of two RR Avons in full reheat. Tremendous ... !!!
