rewatching the progamme...did anyone notice an early bac standard interior?..well in that clip the seats are identical to the current raf seats seat-matarial?..slightly differnt headrests tho?..exactly the same blue green seats tho?..coincidence?..or where the raf,s refit seats second hand?,,i note they where trimmed with red headrest protectors and single red cushion circa 1964.
