Sorry about the dirt specks (on the original colour slide), but it’s too much work to eliminate them all. Photographed by Adrian Pingstone and released to the public domain.
context_page_description: An air ferry is a ferry service in which cars and passengers are transported by aircraft. Use of air ferries peaked in the 1950s, but the advent of more economical alternative modes of transport in the 1960s resulted in the demise of these services. Today a large part of cross-channel car transport is done through the Channel Tunnel.
