Illustrated with outstanding colour profile artworks, The Essential Identification Guide: Civil Aircraft is the definitive study of non-military aircraft from the early experiments to barnstorming daredevils to todays latest commercial airliners. Arranged chronologically, the book describes in depth the various types 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 Concorde to the Airbus A380, from biplanes and triplanes to heavy transport aircraft. With detailed background histories and specification boxes accompanying the full-colour artworks, The Essential Identification Guide: Civil Aircraft is an excellent reference guide for modellers and aviation enthusiasts.
