Originally proposed as early as August 1940, the Gloster Meteor was the first jet aircraft flown by the Allies during the Second World War and equipped the world's first operational jet squadron.

The first DVD ever to be made about this important and fascinating jet fighter, Meteor - The Ultimate Profile follows its development from the drawing board through its service with the RAF to ejection-testing work with Martin-Baker today. During the making of this ground-breaking DVD, extensive colour footage was uncovered of jet pioneer Sir Frank Whittle and the earliest days of the aircraft and is presented here - exclusively - for the very first time.
