Riassunto

Illustrated with outstanding colour profile artworks, this book is the definitive single-volume study of civil aircraft, ranging from the early experiments to pioneering air routes, the post-war aviation boom and continuing up to the latest commercial airliners.

Arranged chronologically, the book describes in depth the various types in service from propeller aircraft to airships, from jets to helicopters to supersonic flight. All the key aircraft types are featured, from Boeing 747s to 787 Dreamliners, from seaplanes to Lear Jets, from supersonic Concorde to the giant Airbus A380, from biplanes and triplanes to heavy transport aircraft.

With detailed background histories and specification boxes accompanying the full-colour artworks, Civil Aircraft 1907–Present is an excellent reference guide for modellers and aviation enthusiasts.
