Great to see the Vickers Merchantman beginning at 5:58 still airworthy. Lots of BAC 1-11 action too - an all-time favourite for Me! Thanks for Sharing!
Nice footage of old school airliners, BAC 111s, Avro 748s in the background, the re-engined DC8, and rarest of all the Air Bridge cargo Vickers Merchantman, that was very nostalgic John thanks.
Hi John I have watched all of your videos and may I just say what an absolute pleasure it was buddy !! I was off work recovering from an illness at the time and they really cheered me up what a thrill to see the old livery's and old forgotten L10-11 of Caledonian and Air Canada not to mention Britannia Airways fantastic old Livery and our beloved Monarch and the BAC 1-11 just WOW !! Thank you so much for sharing these truly remarkable videos I loved them and brought back so many memories and I think it's fair to say they don't make them like this anymore LOL Thanks again buddy regards Tim.
0:45 Britannia airlines then became Thomsonfly and air 2000 became first choice and they merged together to become Thomson And now tui is now the new plane operated after taking over Thomson franchise And as for first choice that airliner is gone
The Emery DC-8 looks like it came from Hawaiian Airlines. Love seeing all these classic jetliners. So much variety compared to today's cookie-cutter, twins on the wings, every plane looks the same. Thanks for the video my friend, great stuff!👍
I went to fly on monarch when I was a 2 year old and it was the first time flying with monarch and the last time I flew with monarch was in 2014 three years before it retired

Was that May 1989?I flew Air 2000 as a kid to Florida, May 1989 and Im sure i remember an Air 2000 737-300 parked on stand 6 thinking, oh I didn’t know Air 2000 had a 737 as-well and thankful we did fly on a 757 lol And the service then to Florida was amazing with metal cutlery, real napkins and fabulous professional stewardesses and stewards.. and a TV showing the movie “Twins” with Arnie and Dani lol
Great to see those bygone Airlines l used to live not too far from airport. Most weekends l would walk there from home, pay to go through turnstiles on the roof pier terraces. Up close and personal back then no airbridges then, passengers walked on tarmac to their planes.
have you got any wardair footage mate?? ..remember coming home in my early years we parked up next to a wardair 747..was more than a semi i got hahaha (pc brigade relax )
John Stewart Was the BAC one eleven in the beginning registered G BJRT?? The plane that the pilot was sucked out the window but lived and the plane landed safely.
This was just before general riff raff were allowed to fly , hard working families could just about afford it , O`leary and his business model spoiled it all , for the decent passengers, for the crew and for the industry . In those days you wouldnt expect to be sat next to some tattooed scroat effing and jeffing and causing a nuisance with no ability to moderate their behaviour and thats just the women :-(
Fantastic memories of days gone by. Thanks again 👍👍👍

Chris Nizer I loved it back then❤️
@Chris Nizer
Well said. The "cookie-cutter" twinjet monotony of today is boring to the point of sleep-inducing compared to this.
G-MOND i flew on when i was 9 ..first time flying ..you never forget :P
How amazing
Emery DC8 Freighter brings back memories
I went to fly on monarch when I was a 2 year old and it was the first time flying with monarch and the last time I flew with monarch was in 2014 three years before it retired
proper monarch colours too
Nice video. At least back then, Monarch was still operating. Hard to believe, that Monarch was operated 1 year ago.
Britannia 737/200 monarch 737/3 wish we could turn the clock back
Those little BAC 111s were incredibly noisy inside, they were usually the Ringway to Heathrow shuttle to catch a connecting flight.😬
Loved the sound of a one eleven engine start😀
How I miss the BAC1-11s
Me too😟

What was that very colourfully liveried 727 at the end? Air Columbus? Never heard of the them before
Air Columbus were a Portuguese airline😀
We flew to Alicante from here in July 89 no more flight only from Scotland then

One more screaming Bac 111 I had to turn the vid off. They made the Concord silent.
A fantastic sound! Miss that so much nowadays 😀
