Brilliant, visited Brooklands on the 27th Feb 2017 whilst staying with my brother in Woking, one of the guides showing us round the Sultans VC10 suggested we look up this video. All of the staff at Brooklands do a tremendous job, very polite, helpful and knowledgeable. My last visit was 2004/5, its amazing to see the massive improvements made since then. A real 'must see' if you are in the area.

Thanks James and can just add that you never know who your are talking to at Brooklands, many of the guides are extremely knowledgeable. When I first got involved recovering aircraft into the Museum there was an old boy cutting the grass and each time we brought in a new aircraft he would come over and chat knowledgeable about that Aircraft. I soon realised he was a clever man who must have worked on the planes and so inquired who he was. I was politely informed "Thats Jock Bryce the Test Pilot that piloted the maiden flights of all the Vickers prototypes right up till he retired and came back to Brooklands to keep the lawns tidy!

I have a happy memory of my one flight on a Vanguard when they were on the Heathrow-Dyce (Aberdeen) route in 1970-something. It was lightly loaded, and we were asked if everyone would mind moving to first class where they could take better care of us. A pleasant, comfortable plane with a crew to suit. Changed times!

At an airshow at Turnhouse many years ago an incoming BEA pilot decided to demonstrate the short landing capabilities of the Vanguard. He came in on runway 13, performed a three point landing and used full reverse thrust and max braking and stopped in time to take the first left turn to the terminal building.

It looks like they touched down on the other side of the street from the runway, then bounced over the street. Even if the tree holes weren't there, had they touched down in the street, running over the curb would probably have ruined their whole day!

It was said that the Vanguard had a tendency to drop like a rock when power was reduced, so I'm not surprised at its premature touchdown. I did log one passenger Vanguard in 1980 - very late in the game - on Europe Aero Service. The ship was F-BVUY, a Vanguard 952 built for Trans Canada Airlines as CF-TKU, and the 44th off the production line. I enjoyed the wide post-modern cabin design but not the low frequency, rumbling sound waves that traveled down the length of the fuselage. Looking back, I am happy to have gone out of my way for this unique experience.

As a Canadian, I remember when TCA (Trans Canada Airlines), later renamed Air Canada had several Vanguards and Viscounts. I had the privilege to frequently fly as a passenger on both aircraft. I was only young and loved visiting the flight deck. I rememberd, especially with the bigger Vanguard, how the wings would flap very noticeably in turbulence. Great memories.

Hi Harold, The Vanguard may not be the best aircraft in the world but she sure is my favourite. Elegant, graceful and truly British in every aspect. The very first aircraft I ever flew on, one day in 1965. How I wish I could have had the presence of mind to log her registration then. She may have even been the Echo Papa of today for all I know (1 in 20 chance of that). But those guys did a grand job in getting EP down at Weybridge now! Props on full power in reverse pitch I see! Fred.

Hi Andy How I regret not taking a day off in the mid sixties, hiring a Uher portable stereo recorder and spending a day at a runway's end at Heathrow (you could then) and getting these beautiful sounds on tape for us all to hear for evermore. The turboprop aircraft of the day, (Britannias, Electras, Viscounts and particularly Vanguards) all had their distinctive voices. The Bristol Britannia with its Proteus engines made a wonderfully soft sound on take off!

I was too late to experience flying on the Vanguard but remember it fondly when visiting the local airport as a kid (plus many other British Aircraft).

The Viscount seemed to be much more common....but the Vanguard, and the Bristol Brittania seemed to be more stately....those engines!

I lived in Northern Ireland in the 60’s so only realistic way to get to London and onward was to fly. So I used to fly a few times a year back and forth by BEA on the Vanguard and Viscount. The windows were huge and I used to watch each engine being started and spun up until all 4 were running. In those days a flight information plan was written by the captain and it was passed around the cabin for the passengers to read. It was noisy on the landing I recall as they used the power of the engines to provide a reverse thrust.

Many thanks for a wonderful video! This reminded of when I saw a BEA Vanguard make a very hairy landing in Dublin in 1966. I was 11 years old at the time. I watched the Vanguard come in to land but it seemed to just float over the runway. It must have been at least 2/3rds of the way down the runway when it finally touched down. I was convinced that it was about to crash. I still remember the smoke and roar of the engines in reverse thrust and the nose dipping as the pilot braked very hard, maybe as hard as the pilot seemed to do in this video.
@AndysVideo
@AndysVideo 12 жыл бұрын
Simply because the aircraft was not meant to touchdown for another 100yds. It was not just the holes in the way, there but also the road with kerbs etc. As you can see when the aircraft did stop, there was still over half the runway available, plus a right hand 'run off' area.
@AndysVideo
@AndysVideo 12 жыл бұрын
Not sure what the length was but the circuit was nearly 3 miles round and the runway went from one end to the other, When you arrive tomorrow if you drive down Wellington Way, this is the road in the video and today it is still easy to see where the runway crosses it. The runway still exists to the South and you can park on it at the southern most end and look north down its length . The North part has been built on and is now part of the Mercedes Test Track.

Hi and thanks for the kind words. Yes this is that very aircraft. If you look through my Brooklands stuff you will find another filmed inside the aircraft when it became the last airliner to move at Brooklands (As MBW converted the runway to a test track). We only had the trees out the ground for a couple of days and then we just had to wait for the weather to be right. On the day we closed of the roads only when the aircraft was on finals so we could have done that at any time that day.

I grew up in Silver Heights, Winnipeg, just south of the airport. All sorts of air traffic from the RCAF, TCA, and private flew over my house. T33's, f-101 Voodoo, f-104 Starfighter, c-119 flying boxcar, even the Sabrejets of the Golden Hawks. I especially remember the loud whine of TCA's Viscounts, and a bit later the quieter Vanguard. I even got to meet, when travelling as a child from Vancouver to Winnipeg, the Avro Arrow killing PM John Diefenbaker.
