Here's a short glimpse at jet aircraft designs, developing after WWII, as the world moved forward toward jet aircraft travel.
There are some uniquely ugly designs but I remind myself, this was an all new and unknown frontier. Interesting in particular are a couple of delta wing test aircraft from AVRO. We all know what was to come from that company in the way of delta wing jets - both in the UK and in Canada?
Early in the film Jan Zurakowski, the test pilot of the yet to be produced Canadian, Avro Arrow, demonstrates the 'Cartwheel' maneuver, in a specially modified Gloucester Meteor. Some interesting stuff.
Almost as ugly as some of the early designs, is the music that traditionally graced British documentaries of the period. :-)

Thanks Roger
Thanks Wodgie. Wow, so many planes I had no idea ever existed.
That's quite the show. Thanks
It's crazy to think that some of them still fly. It had to be the music
