please check the Invicta Vanguard and the Britannia, In all my years at the LBA I've no knowledge of these landing, we only had 5400ft of runway until the extension in the early 80's. I do however remember a BKS Britannia make a low approach and go around.
Well done. I worked there during the Thatcher days. Thank you for your upload. Stay safe. Regards
Just found this. Wonderful selection, and thanks for posting
Pity the photographs are so far out of focus.
Brilliant seeing all the different aircraft :)

I STAND CORRECTED>>>>> the later photos clearly show the vanguard parked on stand 1, this is a surprise for me.
I think the Britannia might be at Newcastle.
Magnificent. There's a lot on there I don't remember but there's a lot I do and I hadn't even started school !
Vickers Viscount. Best short haul aircraft built in this country. Even the American airlines flew it.
