Since its opening in 1946, airlines have beaten a path to its door and nearly seventy years of operation has aroused feelings of appreciation from those who love it and feelings of derision from those who do not.
Heathrow has seen the brightness of magnificent beginnings, the dark days of theft and delays, dramas, the mundane everyday routine and everything in between.
It has seen the arrival and departure of royalty, the rich and famous, and countless millions of ordinary passengers wanting to go somewhere or get home safely.
Now as the airport reaches its seventieth birthday, its position as the world’s premier international hub is under the microscope as airports in Europe seek to attract traffic away from the UK. Heathrow Airport:
An Illustrated History charts the history of the airport through the photographs of those who worked there, who still work there, those who use it and those who are enthusiastic about it.
