Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A fascinating document of aviation history and a mesmerising study of image and light. Edgar Martins was granted special airside access to airports in Europe which retained great importance in aviation history, such as the Azores. Almost all his images were produced at night, using the aprons' floodlights, moonlight or long exposures. The result is incredibly abstract and arresting. In some, sky and ground merge in darkness - in others, the landscape of lights and signs read by pilots remains perplexing.
