Just another golden age of aviation!
Fantastic fifties Farnborough....only the US could match us in those days!
Fascinating planes. Many (if not all) of them were new to me. They look a little odd, as if belonging to a “this is what the future will look like”-book from the 30s
Nice!.. thank you 👍✈️

Breaking the sound barrier over a town too, noce

Most of what we see here are prototypes that actually went on to have fairly long service lives in the RAF, Royal Navy, or in civilian service. About the only thing that didn`t was the big Princess flying boat.
This was the same show where John Derry and his navigator were killed in the DH 110 crash
