Ark Royal Trap footage

[L1011]

Some cool film (prob from a '70's series that I think was ''sailor'' or summat, loong time since I saw it), anyhoo, some nice doc type stuff of F4's & Bucc's , enjoy

That was always my abiding memory of the series seeing that Bucc do so many bolters before finally taking the wire.
