Commentary:
The year 8 students were generally successful with this task except for part 4.
The required information was not clearly indexed in the table of contents: it
could be found by looking under the heading "Airlines", under "Bus/coach
tours and services" (listed under "Johnston's") but not under "Airport
information".
