It's ten years since our first vintage Gatwick DVD (Gatwick Airport from the 1960s to the 1980s), so this all-new second look at a fascinating time at this airport is long overdue.
Using the latest digital restoration techniques and, as always, authentic accurate sound, many classic propliners and early jets are brought back to life from long-forgotten color film.
We start in 1961 with Trans Atlantic Airways DC4, Royal Air Maroc Constellation and an Alitalia DC7CF. Hard to follow that? How about airside action from the ramp, featuring really close up views of Laker and BUA Britannias?
Plus CL44s of AER, RCAF and Transglobe, Dan Air Ambassadors and DC3, Kingdom of Libya Caravelle, Saber Air DC8, Temple Air and Spantax DC7Cs, Kar Air, Transair and SAM DC6Bs, Balair CV990A, lots of 707s and DC-8s and more.
With views from around the airport, including the spectator terraces, the ramps and beside the taxiway, there's no doubt this great DVD will take you back to that golden era once again.
In NTSC DVD format, region-free with a runtime of about 55 minutes.
