Pr�sentation de l'�diteur :

The Haynes Heathrow Airport Manual takes the reader behind the scenes and dissects the airport ‘body’ to see how it functions and what it uses to do so. This detailed official book looks inside Heathrow will cover all aspects of the organisation – airport management, runways, terminals, air traffic control, airport operations, including fuelling, baggage services, freight, passenger services, retail, engineering, emergency services, ground transportation systems, security, meteorology, simulator training and telecommunications. There are an astonishing array of factors, people and services that need to come together to ensure the safe departure or arrival of just one aircraft, let alone the daily average at Heathrow of more than 1,200 flights. The Haynes Heathrow Airport Manual will draw together the mechanics of the constituent parts of the airport body, and show how they interrelate, giving the reader unparalled insight into London Heathrow.
