Hi,

Does anyone know of any film featuring the SBAC show at Radlett, UK in
1947 or 1948? There seems to be plenty of film of the SBAC at
Farnborough from 1949 onwards, but I'm researching a Blackburn
aircraft which only flew on display at Radlett.

TIA
Richard


Would that be the Blackburn Firecrest?


Oh yes......

I was lucky enough to have sight of some surviving works drawings many
years ago but I'd really like to see film of the beast flying and if
possible spreading her wings.

Richard



Can't help with the film but the attached might be of interest. One is from
"Fly Navy" by Ray Williams and the two smaller are from "The British Fighter
Since 1912" by Peter Lewis (Putnam)

Regards

Pat Macguire
