Covering the early history of Heathrow Airport, Charles
Woodley examines the development of London Airport's North
Side. Filling a gap in aviation history, the book covers the
north side up to its final closure in 1970 when flights
transferred to the South Side terminal. Illustrated with a
wealth of archive photographs and much nostalgic appeal, the
book remembers many of the favourite aircraft to fly from
Heathrow over the years, including Stratocruisers, Comets
and Constellations, and recounts a multitude of memories
from airport and airline workers over the years. This
affectionate book recalls days gone by and will appeal not
only to `propliner' aircraft enthusiasts but also to anyone
who had an association with the airport, looking at the
early years through the eyes of those who worked there.
