I used to be an optimist but with age I am now a grumpy old pessimist.

Nigel, several years ago I bought a number of these on VHS from ITVV or other retailers, including this one. I thought that their quality, particularly audio was far superior to others available at that time.
Others that I bought include British Midland F100 East Mids to Nice return, Virgin Atlantic 747-400 to SFO, UK Leisure 767 Gatwick to Florida and Go 737-400 Stansted to Lisbon return. I think they are still available on DVD AFAIK. :thumbsup: EricT
Now at the age where I know I like girls but can't remember why!

Telepathic or what Joe, think I remember that from the sixties but don't know whether I was allowed to watch it then but the music is kind of creepy, the sort that accompanies a programme that has you either on the edge of the seat or behind it!! :hide: :lol: :lol:

Eric, I had one or 2 videos of flights in European countries but since our VHS recorder was eventually assigned to the tip, so were the tapes!! :wall:

Enjoyed the way the captain spoke, a voice full of authority!!

Regards
Nigel.

The Cathay Pacific 747400 Heathrow to Hong Kong with Don Grange video
is a good'n too.

I liked this video on the Classic.... Oh and the flight engineer.. he reminds me of another flight video.
I believe it covered the goings on in the Yorkshire aviation sector.
