Featured review
Truly historic
It's amazing to think that the entire area is now under concrete! I doubt there are many films of this era.
Obviously before the discovery of oil. I wonder if the aircraft fuel was flown in when there were millions of litres right under their feet!
Were the staff truly in threat of losing a limb if they made a mistake?
The morse soundtrack is somewhat distracting. Note the British travellers always needed a bath wherever they journied.
Little else to say except I am required to put in a minimum number of characters.
Highly recommended even if you hate aircraft. I wonder what the fare was?
