Classic Gatwick jetliners

Gatwick was (and indeed still is) London's second airport. Not as busy as Heathrow but still with a huge number of flights and often having something a little different to the bigger airport. This is a collection of jetliners at Gatwick stretching back to the earliest days of the Comet and 707 until the end of the 1980s when everything began to be a little samey.

The photographs in this book by Tom Singfield are well reproduced with informative captions and there is a good variety including some quite rare beasts such as the VFW 614. A great nostalgic look at jetliners as they used to be.
