One of the most important bombers in recent years was the Tupolev Tu-22 Nato codenamed 'Backfire'. One of the swing-wing monsters of the Cold War this machine really put the wind up the West with its   more...awesome stand-ff capability and supersonic speed.
This clip shows the Backfire taking off from the Farnborough runway a few years back. I ran it again with the Sky+ slo mo so you can see the nosewheel retracting first ahead of the main cart. I have more footage of this show somewhere so I really must dig it out.
I am very happy with this post and how LV has picked a perfect image - unlike YT which is still infexible.  less

Those good old days at Farnborough before they stopped huge planes hurtling down the runway. Beautiful gloss white paint job on that crescent wing. Brief glimpse of Shorts SC 1 VTOL plane too.

Deltas ahoy! Farnborough in the good old days with Raymond Baxter then that twat Chris Searle..

Farnborough 1990 one of the biz jets on show.

Sea Harrier's demise continued, the narrator reflects how the jocks must be feeling. Dumb, dumb, dumb decision.

Farnborough display with Raymond Baxter commentary. A plethora of aviation history - Percival Provost, the RAF's piston engined variant, three De Havilland Doves in formation. Then we move to the jet   more...era with a trio of jets including Vampire and Venoms. Saving the best till last the Hawker Hunter flyby with the famous 'blue note' which I think is caused by the open gun ports.  less

Lots of fine footage of Farnborough in its heydays including V-Bombers etc plus his flight in the 2-seat Harrier up the ski-ramp.

Airbus A380 F-WWOW causes a huge jet blast and vortex wake.

Avro Vulcan test bed at Farnborough airshow in sixties (?) with underlsung test engine for either Tornado or Concorde program. Spectacular flypasts and climbs - especially when they ignite the afterburner   more...(rare for a non-reheat Vulcan) long spike of flame comes out the back! Shame that the commentary is irrelevant. I had earlier posted this on YT but they suspended me.... their loss and LV's gain.  less
