This is some unedited black and white footage of the 1977 International F3B contest held in Oxford in 1977.
It was shot on 1/2" reel to reel video tape.
At the beginning is Sean Bannister from the UK flying, and I still remember he did a 14.6 secs for a 2 lap speed task. Next is some footage of one of the Sitar brothers from Austria flying. They used to hand tow from a 150m towline.
The amazing thing then, was they just did 10.5 to 10.6 secs every time and convincingly obliterated the opposition.
