History of the Fleet Air Arm
In 2009 the Fleet Air Arm celebrated 100 years of naval aviation in Britain. The Museum opened a major new exhibition to mark the anniversary and tell the story of the men and women of the Royal Navy who have made it possible to fly aircraft from ships. The exhibition uses many objects, images and films previously unavailable to the public.The film available in this pack was made to mark the anniversary. It uses fascinating contemporary footage that gives a sense of the enterprise and technical foresight needed to make aviation at sea the pre-eminent military tool it is today.
