London Gatwick August - 'Ready to Go 'in 2001

            Not the greatest quality scan of all time. Around this time I was using 'boots' own brand slide film. Projected they are absolutely fine, but they do not scan terribly well in some instances. 

This view from the long closed spectator terrace at London Gatwick features three outbound Boeing 737's and a Northwest DC-10 holding for runway 26L whilst a 737 from British airways flares for landing. 

A fairly typical Gatwick evening rush scene of 2001. Little did any of us know the '9/11' was less than a month away and civil aviation would shortly change for ever. 

The here to fore excellent terrace at Gatwick, all be it progressively dis-improving over a number of years, would permanently close. 

Scan from a slide.
