Title-Yeadon Air Display
The film opens with shots of a line of cars driving along a road and then through a town; there are people standing on the side of the road watching the cars.
The following scene opens at the air field which has crowds of people all around including some army officers. There are shots of different types of planes in the air, spectators walking in the direction of the airfield and police men directing traffic into the field. There are shots of several more types of planes including a fighter plane.
A younger woman walks along the path with an older woman, and then there are shots of them sitting on a bench; the younger woman is eating a cake which she holds up for the camera. There are more planes flying above, including what appears to be a concord.
A young boy stands beside a car while two women lean out of the car smiling; he kisses one of the women on the cheek. A group of planes fly in formation overhead while the crowds wander all around the airfield. There are shots of more planes and then the spectators begin to the leave the field; some St John Ambulance members are gathered near the exit.
