Don’t forget to like share and subscribe guys, have a great evening! 😀✈️

very nice , thanks for sharing ..

A classic aircraft I never got to fly on, save the Vickers VC10. I see another classic in the video. A Hawker Siddley Nimrod, now that's one former Hawker Siddely built aircraft I did get to go on, a few times when I was in the ATC. Looks like this one was from former RAF Kinloss, seeing as it's an MR2 type.

Well done but you should know the Trident wasn't specifically for domestic routes.from the late 60's to the mid 80's it served as the primary BEA carrier to all European destinations.I first flew on it in 1969 from Lhr to Lisbon.

I wish these hawker siddley planes still fly

The off set nose leg so no frames were cut through making the aircraft stronger, Is that the forth rocket engine at the back ???? AND we would say the only reason the thing got airborne was due the the earth being curved !i😗 I use to work with a chap that built them, he told me following the super stall where the aircraft fell from the sky killing all, it included engineering staff out for the jolly, the flight engineer was a personal friend of Cunningham the other test pilot ( not flying that day ) who suspected what a super stall was and the danger it presented bollocked the capt all the way down for getting the aircraft into a super stall, they tried every combination to retrieve the situation nothing they did helped. ! Cunningham went into the stall with one wing down the capt on this flight went into the stall wings level and a super stall developed !! Hawkers so the story goes decided to put a swan neck in from the flight deck to the lower side of the aircraft, this would allow the crew to "bail out" should a super stall be accidentally entered I always thought it a tall story, until one day on the pan at MAN i noticed an older Trident i noticed a circular pattern of rivets where if fitted the swan neck would emerge, so perhaps it wasn't such a tall story after all The last few built went to China, The aircraft was originally designed to be far larger alas BEA downsized it and that was it the video. Rgds Sisaket Thailand.

1 music too loud there was Trident 1 2 and 3s did you know they actually had to shorten the wings to get it to park it where it is????

Did not know, that stripe and rudder were painted green ! The parts of the Tridents I saw were blue...

We had one at perth scotland aerodrome in the early eighties Isaw it landing with some difficulties as runway was a bit short,then used for training purposes afterwards, just remembering the good old days with air service training.

The hawker siddley nimrod is the best. There is one at elvington air museum that I clean.

I flew on one of these several times to Malaga as a child.

I flew on a trident for the first ( and only time ) in 85 from LHR - MAN , such a classy aircraft at the time and for an aviation geek it was thrilling for me . After arriving i went to visit the Manchester Air and Space museum . I was due to return to LHR the same evening on a Trident but I missed my flight so stayed overnight and flew back on a 757 the next morning 😊

I travelled as a passenger on Trident 3B, G-AWZM, a sistership to the one in the video, from LHR to Madrid in June 1979. Beautiful airplane. I was talking with the flight attendants in the mid-galley after the service. They told me how happy they were on the Trident fleet, and how unhappy they were that BA was acquiring 737s which they described as unstable and not good in turbulence.

When has that been open? I've only been in Concorde. Great video👍

Flew on a Trident from Geneva to ( supposedly LHR) in 1975 , we ended up at Cardiff because of fog at LHR. I was 9 , all I remember is 6 hours on a coach back to London and massive condensation on the interior of the Trident; that wasn’t very reassuring to see 😀.

Well done. Great video.

I went to see that trident but unfortunately when I went inside of it the smell inside was very strong and I couldn't breathe idk what it was but it wasn't pleasant experience to see 51 year old aircraft I had to use my hoodie as mask to walkabout the aircraft

I flew on a Trident from London Heathrow to Frankfurt Germany back in 1982.

Interesting video Charlie👌. Liked

great video mate i went in that aircraft back in the summer

Thanks for that. I used to be a tour guide initially on Concorde, but later also the RJ, Trident, DC10, and Nimrod. I started in 2004 when the Concorde tours first started, and retired from it some years ago. After I retired from my real job, I was able to spend more time at the RVP and did Airport tours and education presentations to colleges and schools. They were great days (mostly!) and it's good to see WK again. The Trident with the shortest wing span! (They were cropped to take up less room when she was a training aid at Heathrow). I must come back and visit my beloved Concorde again some day. She's the one I really miss!

Wow...this is epic 👌

Awesome video!

Thanks for sharing very interesting video , I may suggest that these old aircraft are preserved better in a hanger or at least having a roof over them to save them from the sun and rain

Great video my man. Good work!

BE . 548 Key had a heart attack , and the junior pilots panicked and lostt control .
