    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 27, 2013
    Purchased for me as a birthday present. Having been crazy about airports and commercial airlines since a 10 year old I have gone back to my interest in commercial aviation. This book is great as it starts from the time all the airports first came into being and brings you into the more modern times.

    4.0 out of 5 stars London airports information
    Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 26, 2011
    Item was sent in a reasonable time and arrived ok.
    It was purchased as a christmas present for my grandson aged 8.
    I am dissapointed by the contents of the book.
    It is a meandering history of the multiple airports development and lacks the sort of information, diagrams and photographs that an enquiring 8 year old mind would appreciate.
