{"product_id":"9781914414152","title":"Nine Lives","description":"\u003cp\u003eBiggin Hill, world-famous as a Battle of Britain fighter station, has had many lives. First used as an airfield in 1917, Biggin Hill saw brutal action in both World Wars, never losing a day's operations despite devastating enemy attacks. Since 1959 two dynamic figures have kept this historic airfield open against the odds: fighter ace Jock Maitland, creator of the renowned Biggin Hill Air Show, and army pilot Andrew Walters, who has turned it into London's No 1 business airport, with a thriving aviation community that includes air charter companies, engineering firms, flying schools, storage and restoration, and Formula 1 and Bombardier interests. Meanwhile a new Museum and St George's Memorial Chapel keeps memories alive.      The first full history of this great airfield, Nine Lives looks behind the scenes of a busy modern airport, digs deep into its dramatic past, and tells an inspiring tale of enterprise, innovation, teamwork and determination.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"UNICORN PRESS","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":51185608360210,"sku":"9781914414152","price":79.19,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0508\/3093\/4173\/files\/9781914414152.jpg?v=1779228448","url":"https:\/\/bargainbooks.com.au\/products\/9781914414152","provider":"Bargain Books Australia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
