Heathrow, Under Construction, From A Helicopter c.1960

A Memory of Heathrow Airport London.

I suggest this photo was taken c.1954 as the Control Tower and Main Terminal buildings were complete and opened by the Queen in 1955. My first visit there as a planespotter was in 1961, by that time the airport was in full operation. Happy Days - open roof gardens for viewing, no terrorist threats and life was less stressful.
