RAF Alconbury

1991 was a special year for Alconbury marking the impending departure of the A10 yet celebrating the type's success in the Gulf War. A big static line up showed off imaginative nose-arts and kill markings and they were joined by many other Gulf 'veterans' USAF and RAF. The DVD, however, concentrates on the flying display with US types prominent. The A10, F15 and TR1 are particularly impressive as is the A7 Corsair II of the Portuguese Air Force performing an extremely rare display.

Includes:

BAe Woodford '90.

Woodford is the site of the historic Avro company and highlights of this years show are the Vulcans 30th birthday plus a rare display by a FRADU single seat hunter.

Army Air Corps Middle Wallop '90

Choppers rule at this beautiful and historic grass strip airfield and the 'mass approach' of over 80 helicopters is spectacular. The veteran Whirlwind and lethal Apache are rare display items.

Includes:

(USAF) Alconbury '90

Beautiful weather greet La Patrouille France display team, the home based A10 and TR1 'spy' plane and several historic American warbirds.
