RAF Church Fenton
There is a soldier standing watch and some people walking around the grounds of the airfield. Planes are stationary and on display, and parts of them can be seen including the entire plane and more intricate parts of the engine, etc. One plane is clearly marked, Rolls-Royce R3146 Avon. In addition, there many planes on display from vintage aircrafts to more modern models.
The first plane takes off directed by air traffic controllers on the ground to begin the air show. Both older and newer models of planes can be seen in the air. A single helicopter appears and later there are four flying in formation.
A shot of the air traffic tower begins the next sequence as different planes perform dips and dives in the air.
A group of soldiers make their way to the centre of the airfield where a helicopter lands to allow them to board before again taking off.
There are various fighting planes which fly through the air performing dips, dives, and other flight techniques. The planes in this portion of the show range from vintage fighter planes to new jet-like models. The film then closes with end titles.
