Newark Airport was the first major airport in the New York metropolitan area. It opened on October 1, 1928, occupying an area of filled-in marshland. In 1935, Amelia Earhart dedicated the Newark Airport Administration Building, which was North America's first commercial airline terminal. Newark was the busiest airport in the world until LaGuardia Airport, in New York, opened in 1939. During World War II, Newark was closed to passenger traffic and controlled by the United States Army Air Force for logistics operations. The Port Authority of New York took over the airport in 1948 and made major investments in airport infrastructure. It expanded, opened new runways and hangars, and improved the airport's terminal layout. The art deco administration building served as the main terminal until the opening of the North Terminal in 1953. The administration building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1979.

While admittedly somewhat limited (about the width and height of an aircraft windscreen) and woefully short of the "big picture," the pilot's perspective offers some unique insights into the vagaries of life. Those insights are presented in "This Is Your Captain Speaking" as a series of tales that, while amusing and lighthearted, give reason to pause and think. Put your seatbacks into the full-upright and locked position, stow and lock your tray tables, and sit back and enjoy the ride.
While this book gives you a "life in Mayberry" feeling at its beginning, you must read on. It suddenly moves into more serious, sorrowful and sometimes humorous events. The author is the main character who takes you through the good times and the horrific. The graphically described sequence of events of his experiences in Vietnam, and the six major battles he takes part in, will have you grabbing for your seat belts. While you find humor in some parts, you will tear up in others. There are covert operations brought out here that you may not have ever read nor heard about until now. The many stories vividly described herein will take you around the globe to no less than 21 different countries of Europe and the Far East, not to mention the many states of the U.S. It takes you through American military bases that are not accessible to the average citizen. From coast to coast, from the Gulf of Mexico to the far reaches of Anchorage, Alaska, come along with us on this trip. I think you will enjoy the ride
The North London Line from Richmond to Broad Street, and later, to Stratford was the capital's Cinderella railway for many years. An official report in 2006 called it 'shabby, unsafe, unreliable and overcrowded.' It was threatened with closure under the Beeching Axe in the 1960s and again in the 1970s, escaping on both occasions due to organised and effective protest groups. Today it thrives as a key part of Transport for London's Overground network, and the story of how it survived closure threats and lack of investment is essential to an understanding of the politics of public transport in London over the past half century
