Every year the C. P. Robertson Memorial Trophy is awarded by the Air Public Relations Association to someone whose constant effort has been the interpretation of the Royal Air Force to the public.
This year the award went to aviation photographer Arthur Gibson , not only for his outstanding pictures, but above all for his remarkable new film of the Red Arrows in their latest aircraft, the Hawk.
Gibson has probably spent more time in the air with the Red Arrows than any other civilian, and this film bears great testimony to the mutual trust between him and the team.
Raymond Baxter introduces the film from the awards ceremony at the RAF Club, Piccadilly, and talks to Arthur Gibson , Squadron Leader Brian Hoskins and Wing Commander Wally Black of the Red Arrows.
