It's most likely a 1972 or newer trailer...but it's nearly impossible to tell the exact model from just the front corner image in the video. Probably a longer model like an Overlander or Sovereign because they were pretty popular in the 70's - there are lots of them.
  • I believe the 1970-71 trailers had more of a rounded top door - this one is more square-ish. I think the switch was in 1972.
  • If it was 1969, it would have a squared off window at the bottom corner - not the "D" shape (which BTW, it is missing glass - these windows were not operable)
  • If it was even older (1966-68), it would have corning glass windows which are frameless.

Thanks Shari . . . your AS knowledge far exceeds mine.

Just shooting from the hip here . . . the inside of the main door and the side window suggest something at least from the 1980's, or maybe newer IMO.

Noted -- significance unknown:
-- No fixed glass in the door
-- No panoramic windows
-- No plexi rock guards over the front windows
-- No SS segment protector over the lower corner
-- Is that yellow marker light a good clue?
-- The weathered "AIRSTREAM" over the window -- is the font a clue?

No other clues on FB?

I am going to say it is a 1972. The last year for the single hinged main door and the first year for the flattened top of the main door. The model is difficult with no view of the trailer and it is hard to determine the size of the window next to the door. My guess would be a TradeWind or an Overlander.
