There are various shots of planes, including a Hurricane and a Lancaster, spectators at the show, and a huge hangar with various aircraft nearby, with people of all ages looking about. This is followed by a sequence about gliders - a glider is pulled into the air, a man gets into an orange glider, and a yellow glider takes off. Ground crew wave him away. Point of view shot from the glider, including the controls, with a view over the fields below. People crowd round on the ground. M/S man with a camera.

Finally there is a sequence showing the Red Arrows, with point of view shots from one aircraft, as they let smoke trails go. They are trained by the Royal Air Force's Central Flying School to perform amazing aerial displays with their Gnat aircraft. There are some great shots as they loop and spin, flying in formation, with point of view shots, where the altimeter is in vision, air to air and ground to air shots of their terrific display.
