Video showing M18-18 clip from Brian Iles's film of his return flight from RAF Jever to Bulawayo, Africa in his Miles M-18 light aircraft beginning on Tuesday 20th July 1954 and starting their return on Monday 16th August 1954. They left El Adem at 04:45hrs the next morning Wednesday 25Aug54. It was a flight of 2 hrs and 25 mins across the Mediterranean to Crete where they landed at Heraklion for re-fuelling. There are some shots of the rough seas, presumably in Crete. Then they are airborne again at 09:20 hours for the 2 hour flight to Athens. They seem to have taken the afternoon off for some sightseeing around Athens. There are some shots of the Acropolis and Brian and Sandy reading their guide books. After more shots around tha Acropolis they are airborne again over Athens the next day at 10:20 hrs on the Thursday 26Aug54.
