Classic Airliners Book

This companion volume to "Airliners Worldwide", "Airlines Worldwide", and "Airlines Remembered" reviews the specifications, histories and operations of 76 airliner types from the last half century. It is illustrated with more than 200 outstanding color photographs from all around the world, showing the airliners both in service and preserved examples that can still be seen today. Included are fondly-remembered types such as the Lockheed Constellation, Douglas DC-3, and Vickers Viscount, plus some less well-known yet significant types, such as the Dassault Mercure, Breguet Deux Ponts, Saab Scandia, and VFW-614. All the appropriate Boeing, Douglas, Antonov, Lockheed, Ilyushin, and Tupolev types appear.
