Farnborough Air Show's

[slideman]

I am trying to trace logs of aircraft participating in Farnborough Airshows in the 1950's and early1960's

Does anyone know anywhere I can go for this information ?

On the top bar, select 'Airshows', then select the drop-down menu with the years.

Also you might try old Air Pictorials found at www.steemrok.com/airpic/blanktop.html why some copies are available . Remember the shows were in September and yearly then . Please note , you may not require all after the .com on the above address and you should get a page with just the red Air Pictorial banner , just click on the banner and a page opens with the magazines .

The Scramble website also has show reports for Farnborough in their Database section for the 50's & 60's. Trust this helps your research, Owen

Only thing I would say about the Scramble Farnborough show reports is , they tend not to mention any civil aircraft nor visitors and in the case of the old shows , no based aircraft from the likes of ETPS . On the milspotters io forum there are available the WLAG group magazines along with several other groups mags . These have the FAB shows listed but the printing of the mags was never very good in the early days . Another place is the BARG magazines which are on disc but out of production so you require a person to lend them to you . Chrisj
