EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the busy Heathrow flight path in June 1997. The image showcases the relentless efforts being made to enhance efficiency and reduce intervals between landing planes. In an attempt to bring planes closer together, a significant change was implemented, allowing them to land at intervals of one minute or even less, instead of the usual 90-second gap. The photograph was taken on Sutton Road in Hounslow during a bustling morning when planes were continuously descending onto the runway. A staggering number of 100 planes successfully landed between 7:45 am and 10 o'clock that day, showcasing the magnitude of air traffic at one of the world's busiest airports. Alisdair Macdonald skillfully captured this moment using time-lapse photography techniques, freezing multiple instances into a single frame. The result is an awe-inspiring visual spectacle that portrays both the beauty and complexity of aviation. This snapshot from the 1990s serves as a reminder of how technological advancements have revolutionized air travel over time. It also highlights Heathrow's commitment to optimizing operations while ensuring passenger safety and convenience.
