Afternoon all

Does anyone know of any call signs they picked up from someone or got written down during this era of participating airforces at the UK airshows. Especially the formation display flying eg the Vulcan scrambles etc. I know the airband scanners were in the infancy then, just a long shot!!

I know wrong section!!

I did not keep a Log but I remember that many RAF aircraft at shows used used a normal RAF Trigraph eg HDY 17 . It was quite easy to recognise most aircraft types by the background noise to the transmission Vulcans hi pitched tone , Gnats sounded like the pilot was playing a Stylophone.

Thanks much appreciated, I did wonder to what call signs they used.
