We first see the shadows of two planes fly overhead, followed by the planes themselves and shots of the waiting crowd at the aerodrome. An intertitle instructs us that we are watching "Small single seaters, monster bombers, super flying boats and many other types". We then see shots of various other planes taxiing and stationary on the ground.
We then see more planes in the air, performing stunts singly or in groups. We also see shots of five parachutists jumping out planes and landing safely on the ground.
We then see five planes flying in formation and what appears to be a 'boat' moving across the airfield, followed by shots of more planes on the ground and taking off to join the original group in a mock battle.
We then see a mock dogfight with one plane taking a 'hit' and plummeting towards the ground. We also see an airship on fire which does fall to the ground.

The inventory from Nottinghamshire Archives identifies the display as possibly that presented at the opening of Tollerton airfield on 27th July 1929 by Albert Cobhan Aviation Limited and identifies Vickers Vimy bombers and Bristol Bulldog fighters amongst the planes.
