Heathrow – A look back at the history
Heathrow Airport has quite a rich history that dates back to the year 1930. It all started with a British aero engineer and aircraft builder Richard Fairey paying £15,000 for a 150-acre plot. This plot was used to build a private airport for testing and assembling aircraft. It was then named Fairey’s Great West Aerodrome, which went on to become what we call now Heathrow International Airport.
The same land later, was one of the requisitioned lands by the Government during World War II, to build RAF Heston, a different kind of base for troop-carrying aircraft. As the war was ending and the airbase was not needed anymore, the ownership was handed over to the Air Ministry as London’s civil airport. This was on the very first day of 1946.
The first aircraft to ever take off from Heathrow was Starlight, which is a converted Lancaster bomber. In the year 1966, the airport was named Heathrow Airport as previously it was called London Airport. Over the years, Heathrow has gone through tremendous changes in its operations, services, designs, and the number of passengers, and by 2006 it has handled around 1 billion passengers on over 14 million flights. In the year 2016, Heathrow celebrated its 70th anniversary.
