£3.69 on Amazon, where some have given it bad reviews based on their view that the runway wasn’t hit and destroyed… Who is right?

edit: just found some material on thunder & lightnings

Yawn. I thought it had been pretty comprehensively proved by now that there was significant damage to the runway that the Argentinians did not have time to do anything other than roughly fill with rubble. There was a thread about it a while back with some pretty compelling material.

Incidentally Pook notes in the book referred to in my last post that when the Harriers got to Stanley after the shooting war, a lot of work had to be done to put the runway back in action.

Pretty poor reason to criticise the book anyway. Was the reviewer a Mr Ward by any chance?!
