Great West Aerodrome

The Great West Aerodrome, also known as Harmondsworth Aerodrome or Heathrow Aerodrome, was a grass airfield which operated between 1930 and 1944. It was on the southeast edge of the hamlet of Heathrow, in the parish of Harmondsworth. The Fairey Aviation Company owned and operated it for assembly and flight testing of Fairey-manufactured aircraft. The area would later become the site of London Heathrow Airport.
