Miscellanies videos I have made that are associated with Brooklands
between 1983 and 1999. These includes Aircraft Recovery, Site Clearance
and much more. It also includes the fund raising trips we took in
Vickers Viscounts, with live Cockpit footage.
Recent videos I have made that are associated with Brooklands. These include
some Aircraft Recoveries, including the incredible Vimy Transportation.
Behind the scenes at the first Dunsfold Wings and Wheels. A number of
fly-ins and moving Concorde.
As most visitors to
this site are aviation enthusiasts I have gathered all my aviation related
videos from 1983 to present into one Playlist, (rather than spread
around the site) it
include some rare footage of some very
interesting retired aircraft.
These videos range from 1979 to 2000 and deal mostly with my years as
MD of National Rescue. It shows accidents on (or off) the A3, M3 and M25
and how we dealt with them. Anyone in recovery today, may wonder how we
lived through it!
This smaller Play-List contains some modern videos and are again
largely about Vehicle Recovery, but from after 2000. It includes a look
around REME at Bordon,
a little education about RISC
and a close up of Miss Milly Tant
A collection of Videos from
some of the many Mayday Emergence Vehicle 'Open Days' at Brooklands
Museum. They are in year order, and are fun to watch, especialy if you
like 'Blues and Twos'
These are my Home and Family videos and if you know some of the
family and any of my crazy friends, they may amuse you and explain why I
am like I am. There is also a little of my Glamour Work, a little bit
for Cat fans and about Elliott School Putney.
Background Hello, my name is Andy Lambert. I spent forty years of
my life in the recovery Industry and before I got into Management, the
first twenty years were spent at the 'sharp end'. I did occasionally
have a moment to grab the video camera and so when I have time I
am posting some of the better bits on You Tube. I have also posted much
of my more modern work, mostly of events and incidents at Brooklands
Museum, that I have videoed.
The subjects range from Aircraft to
Trucks, Glamour to Recovery and Accidents to Comedy. Locations range
from Brooklands to Utah and Arizona to Weybridge and race tracks like
Goodwood and Indianapolis. There is some humour, like the video we did
for Julian's wedding. A lot of items, are of some historical interest
and most are very unique. A few modern recovery operators may look at
the way we did things 'back then' and think "what about health and
safety?" the answer is simple, there was none and it looks so scary now!
There is also a growing list of modern HD Video including flying in
aircraft like the Brooklands' Vimy and chasing the Napier Railton around
Goodwood. The Brooklands Mayday events are well covered with Fire
Engines, Ambulances, Police cars and Emergency Vehicles of all ages
represented.
About Me:- I am sixty plus and now virtually
retired, apart from working for RISC UK and The Brooklands Museum
Charities. Having worked most of my life in and around vehicle recovery.
First as founder and Managing Director of the National Rescue Group and
then the MTS Group. I am largely respected by my peers in the
industry and I am without doubt the only one of them, to have recovered
a Concorde (along with most of the Aircraft at Brooklands).
I
have been playing with video (only ever as an amateur) since the days of
Sony 8, through VHS, then SVHS and now HDI. Clearly I enjoy Videoing
(but I am not especially good at it). I am a fairly good photographer
however (Glamour and Landscape a speciality), so maybe I will get better
with video now I have the time! If you want to see more of anything
particular, send me an email (link below).
