I seem to remember there being a colour film from the late '50s, or early '60s that features the Swift. Does anybody remember what it was called?

'Conflict of Wings' (1954) Quite entertaining in its own right, but full of contemporary RAF aircraft in colour. Two Swift F.1 are shown. Somewhere I have further details, but you can search using the title. The articles I (Frank Goodridge) wrote with Alan Curry for 'Flypast' in 1987 have some other details of Swift film involvement - mainly 'Sound Barrier'.
