Biggin Hill Airfield is a famous Battle of Britain fighter station. The Spitfire and Hurricane featured at the 1996 International Air Fair but the centrepiece of the event was 'The wat that never was.'

The 'Cold War' in the 50's threatened to escalate into global conflict and the Hawker Hunter was our front line of defence at the time. The show managed to assemble no fewer than 7 flying examples and the dramatic scramble to intercept the intruder Mig is captured by an airborne camera.

By popular request, Aviation Action has once again drawn together, in a bumper length video, the highlights from several Shuttleworth Collection airshows. Most of the 1996 events are featured here. Expert videography and, for the most part, excellent weather combine to deliver some of the most spectacular footage ever recorded at the photogenic grass airfield at Old Warden.
