Hey guys, I saw this pic in the gallery photos/showphoto.php?photo=1040&title=fairey-corner-hayes-2004&cat=504 and wondered if that was from a set or if that was the only one? It's rare to see overhead photos from West London so it would be good if there was a set that went with this. I assume it must have been taken from a helicopter. Any idea who was lucky enough to take it?

Quite true. It would have been nice if Fairey Aviation had continued their work, or even if Westland had stayed there. |

Yep, sad how things have changed. Would have been nice if Heston airfield remained aswell. |

My Grandad and My Dad both worked at Fairey, and I worked at Safeway on the same site. |

Argyll was the name I couldn't remember. My friend Jackie was in accounts there and then it changed to Safeway and then she got married and we lost touch |
