The Vickers VC10 making its first taxi test on the runway at the Vickers Airfield on the old Brooklands racing track.
People living nearby had been warned of the terrific noise to be expected from the four Rolls Royce Conway engines. Ambulances had been made available for any infirm people to be moved from the immediate neighbourhood. A blast wall had been built to deflect upwards the 40 ton pressure from the four engines, whuich was sufficient to blow a train off the railtrack behind the runway.
