Boac Hatton Cross Part 1
A Memory of Heathrow Airport London.
I remember Comet House, Speedbird House, and Technical Block A. Later they were linked together by a walkway above ground level. The board room was originally in TBA but when Speedbird House was built it was moved to there. Freight Revenue was in Comet House as was Catering and Cargo. Also there was Pay Office which had a delivery of money robbed which was rumoured to have financed the Great Train Robbery. Opposite to TBA was TBB, (Techical Block B). This was a large block in which the Boeing 707's and VC10'S were maintained. In the centre upstairs was the Radio Workshop, while downstairs there were stores. These memories cover 1961 onwards.
