Britons Exhibit Air Might; At the annual Farnborough Air Show, men, including Russians looking to purchase, walk along rows of new planes. Men look on as four Hawker Hunter planes circle the sky in formation. We see a close-up of a Hawker Hunter as it flies, and a closer look at its attached fireflash, an air to air missile. Another Hawker Hunter is shown carrying other rockets under its wings. Twin jet canberras, the Royal Navy's Super Marine Swift, and a delta-winged plane.
