It's a busy Tuesday on the viewing terraces of the now-demolished Queens Building at London’s Heathrow Airport. As a variety of classic aircraft types arrive and depart we also see the inadequate airport car parking of the time. We then board a coach to Eastbourne with the rest of the Diamond family. A trip to Beachy Head follows with views of the lighthouse below. Finally, we arrive at Devil's Dyke near Brighton with big sky views over the South Downs.
