'Farnborough 1988 Air Show' : Full 1988 VHS Tape Documentary (4K)

Описание: 1988 marks Farnborough's 40th anniversary and this exciting and informative video brings you all the thrills of the flying displays and the latest news.

From the mysterious MIG 29 Folcrum, the power of the Mirage 2000, the elegant Rafale, CF18 Hornet, the exciting F16C Fighting Falcon to the amazing antics of the AH64 Apache helicopter with its barrel roll; the public debut of the EH101, plus the Red Arrows and a rare opportunity to see six Sea Harriers in an integrated Royal Navy display.

On the civil side there's the revolutionary MD81 UHB inducted fan test bed, the state-of-the-art A230 Airbus, the historic 'Grosvenor House' DH 88 Comet, ATP, BAe 146, AN124, Shorts 360 and Tucano, and what is reportedly Concorde's last appearance at an air show -- plus many more.

EAST MEETS WEST

Farnborough International Air Show has, over the years, been host to numerous historic aviation firsts -- and this year was certainly no exception.

As two MIG 29s Of the Soviet Air Force arrived, escorted by two RAF Tornados, they became the first Soviet fighters ever to be displayed in the west.

These exciting flying displays captured the imagination of both the public and seasoned professionals alike; from its rock steady knife edge pass, high G turns to its amazing tail slide!

This superb video captures the whole thrilling display, plus the only opportunity to see the MIG 29 and its two seat variant, the 29UB, being escorted by two RAF Tornados and performing a breath-taking impromptu flying display for the awaiting reception committee below.

PLUS

Come on aboard the world's largest aircraft -- the Antonov 124 -- for a guided tour of the flight deck and huge interior.

Format: VHS (DVD-R Transfer)

Run Time: 57 Minutes

This rare 1988 documentary has now been transferred from its original VHS cassette to 4K for all Farnborough, Aircraft and Aviation fans to enjoy.

I also wanted to preserve it as the VHS was old and there are some amazing Cold War and WW2 aircraft on there, plus the mighty Thunderbird herself, Concorde.

I don't own the copyright and I was only uploading it for Historical film and educational documentation purposes.
