Notes:
Talk by Sir Peter Mansfield to Surrey Local History Council's symposium on 'Road, Rail and Air', 1985. Deals with highlights in air transport in Surrey starting from ballooning in 1785 but almost entirely about the county's 'aerodromes' and airports from 1907 to the 1980s - especially Brooklands, Croydon, Gatwick, Kenley and Dunsfold
