(Subject: Aviation - General) This book chronicles the history of Pan American World Airways, believed by many to be the world's greatest airline. From its modest beginnings in 1927 Pan Am grew to encompass the entire globe, always pioneering new routes, experimenting with the newest and best available aircraft, accumulating valuable experience in long-distance navigation. The author presents the story in sections, each organized around the acquisition of a new aircraft or the expansion of its air routes. The book recreates the step-by-step growth of commercial aviation technology, from the early Fokkers and Ford Tri-Motors to today's giant Boeing, Douglas, and Lockheed turbojets. The book predates the Lockerbie tragedy and Pan Am's subsequent demise in 1991.

Condition: very good condition. First Edition - First Printing - - This excellently illustrated book is a rare compilation of Lufthansa' history. You will find a well selected collection of information and spectacular maps of the old routes flown by Lufthansa in the past, never shown in any other publication. Also included are rare photos of Lufthansa aircraft of the past together with side view illustrations of selected aircraft, the rare color logos of Eurasia, SCADTA, DeruLuft and others and a colored "Anecestry of Deutsche Luft Hansa" from 1918 to 1928. - Highly recommended! - - Germany's national airline, Lufthansa, traces its heritage to the earliest years of aviation. By 1919, when Lufthansa's first progenitor, Deutsche Luft-Reederei, established the crane symbol still proudly carried today, the German public was already air-borne: Count Zeppelin's airships had carried more than ten thousand paying passengers before World War I, generating a flying start for Lufthansa's ancestors. - During its formative years the airline mirrored the progress of German aviation technology. The all-metal Junkers F 13 of 1919 was years ahead of its time. Its direct descendant, the Junkers-Ju 52/3m - Tante Ju - was built in greater numbers than any other transport aircraft except the DC-3. The 1926 Rohrbach Roland's box-spar wing and stressed skin heralded the multicellular construction still standard today. And Lufthansa launched other pacesetting types, from the 1938 transatlantic Focke-Wulf Condor to the Airbus family of the 1980s. - The author's exhaustive research turned up much noteworthy new material, in-cluding a comprehensive genealogy of Lufthansa's numerous ancestors, succinct surveys and adventures of overseas associates, and innovative transoceanic experiments with catapult-launched aircraft. - As in Pan Am, the first book in this series, Lufthansa: An Airline and Its Aircraft is filled with meticulously compiled tables of vital data; scores of photographs, some never before published; and Mike Machat's süperb, painstakingly accurate aircraft drawings. 90 p. many photos, illustrations and maps Original cloth binding with dust jacket, large format.
