I was the Cabin Crew member on this flight and I have to say, it still gives me goose bumps watching it now! The best day of my flying career so far!

My neighbour and good friend Geoff A was the Captain of the 747 that day. A very modest and lovely man and his claim to fame now? He looks after our cat when we are on holiday (and what a fantastic job he and his lovely wife do!). You couldn’t wish for a better friend, full of knowledge and as I mentioned extremely modest (but a great laugh!)

the 747 pilot is really showing some skill. keeping a bird that big in the air at such slow speeds.

this plane is so beautiful i just love it!!

Richard you LEGEND!!!!

fantastic video .... i was there and was absolutely mesmerised .... i can watch this over and over again

been to alot of shows but that was special

ABSOLUTELY BEAUTIFUL! This video sends shivers down my spine! I absolutely LOVE Virgin Atlantic, I don't fly anyone else! They're the best AND they never strike! I'm flying on them to Miami next week :) I salute you Virgin Atlantic VS! PS- I LOVE their theme song!

How was it? I know its been 10 years but.

Magnificent boeing 747 and red arrows just amazing planes they are

that's one great formation flying. 5 Stars to the arrows and the virgin atlantic 747 pilot.

Those two djs are like smashie and nicey.

That is something you do not see everyday...beautiful sight!

biggin hill was fantastic this part was best' the world war 1 planes were good aswell

Big beautiful bird!

Fantastic

Great video

legend of an airline ! branson you legend !

At 1:45 he says VA's first aircraft was an early series 747-100, in fact their first aircraft was G-VIRG a 747-200.

That was intense!

Fantastic...

Wow I remember being there that day in 2009 it was pretty spectacular as were the boiling hot thunderstorms in the evening as well

I was about 10 feet away from you, and my camcorder misbehaved, so thank you - it was an excellent experience, especially as the Vulcan was cancelled - see you next year, and great video.

WOW! That is a GREAT shot!

I was there is was fantastic!!!!!

Superb! Thank you for posting! im Gutted i missed being there now :(

Virgin Atlantic are superb !

Fantastic! Thank You for posting....

WOW NIIICEEE

wow absolutely stunning blown away by it :)

Great post,Excellent effort.

I WANT THAT PLANE

Biggin hill sadly missed

Probably the best day of that bus drivers life getting to fly with real pilots

Excellent vid!!

I am bloody GUTTED i was at the show on Saturday 27th.. That was a very excellent post for Biggin Hill, it shows the air fair at its very best.. I go every year and post videos on here from the air fair, but i must say that was awesome.. Thanks for sharing.. Maybe you could contact me as i will be there next year for sure, we could meet up at the show... tico0808

brilliant absolutely bloody brilliant..

haha i live in biggin and they went right over my house sound was just amazing

Aww i love the way that they did that :) ♥

that was so cool!!!!!!!!

owwwww amazing plane

Shame this one has been retired :(

Yeah I agree with you! Wish they had an off switch! Wish someone would invent a board you can hold up (like those FOUR or SIX boards at a cricket test) that says STFU!! :)

thats my friends dad in the boeing 747!

The best airline ♥

Great video 5*. I have also added this o my Favourites.

this airline is sooooo coool! :D

the formation break was simple, but very effective

love the virgin atlantics theme song

A month ago i flew with tis very, very beautiful airplane (G-VFAB) to L.A. without realizing it..untill i saw this video :D Sry 4 my bad english :D

that's Richard Branson for you

imagine if there was people on board.. "F*ck!!! I thought i was going to L.A! !!" haha awesome

Been goin biggin hill for decades, but this was spectacular, The saturday was the best day, glorious sunshine. . Great footage pre digi. ?

You wouldn’t believe this was travelling above 600mph, the shear size of the 747 makes it appear to be travelling slow

this is coool i love it

Lovely Film- What camera are you using?

Nice one Kiwi!

I wonder how far the numbers were stretched to get this so low. Couldn't do it now I bet. 💕💕

Your video is brilliant. I was lucky enough to be the crew member working on the flight, it was amazing and looked really good seeing it all from the sky. Sadly, i don't have any footage from the ground. I know the geoff the captain and richard and jim the first officers are keen to get some footage, would it be possible for you to send me the footage if i forward you my e mail so i can share it with them. Cheers stuart

the kid got it right : " That was awesome "

good video pity about the commentary.

GREAT VIDEO!!! what's the music?

wow great video!! 10*

i love it :)

Wanna be flyin' dat 74 one day ;D

I remember this one. Like if you think that the red arrows pilot behind the virgin was screaming this is as slow as it goes and the virgin pilot was screaming FASTER FASTER FASTER!!

i guess virgin told them to play it, to connect with their ad, it uses the same song

GO BRANSON

hes going back!

FRANKIE GOES TO HOLLYWOOD RELAX (NEW YORK MIX) - it was playing through the PA system at the time.

Isn’t the music copyrighted?

it certainly was very good to be there!! My first biggin hill air show!! How do they coordinate the turns??

they should make a VA stunt team!!!!!!!

them comentators are really funny lol are they from radio2? sounds like it

Did this Virgin Atlantic 747-400 have passengers on board at the time?

A shame the pa drowns out the jet sounds......

Ithought they would play opera music

should be a concorde instead

@399music i think u may request the flight but u would have to give a reasoning, otherwise u have to stick with what u get...

from miami

WOW 5*

Did the 747 do a loop also, or just the fly past?

Is it Ben Lodge? xD

Sure, no problem - it's actually recorded in HD - drop me your e-mail address and I'll be happy to burn a copy onto DVD for you. I'll see if i can also post the HD version.. Cheers Steve

What's that horrible noise in the background? Didn't know such a horrible sound was possible.

BA---any day !!!!! 5 hours on the runway at Keflavik as flight had to dump fuel on way to SFO then refuel in Iceland without so much as a cup of tea----Cabin crew were just plain lazy

Virgin cabin crew are too concerned with chatting about their social lives to bother about doing the job they're paid to do. Idiots!
