@MrFlashjet Thanks Flashjet, that's greatly appreciated! If only I could go back in time with an HD cam!!! I'm just transferring a few more old VHS tapes at the moment, so there'll be more old footage online soon!

Wish there was some footage of BMA landing at Liverpool Airport! I worked there for them from 88-92 until they pulled out-we had DC9s-wonder whatever happened to them?

Quite a few of them went to fly with ValuJet in the States.

One of the best colour schemes British Midland Airways had.  I flew on the DC-9's to LBA; nice aircraft.

Fantastic video. My dad flew DC9s for BM. Do you have any footage of BM Fokkers too? That'd be excellent.

This was before the airline became a German experiment for Lufthansa...
