Paperback. Condition: New. The first widely used commercial jet, the Boeing 707 brought America into the 'Jet Age' of the late 1950s and created the template for worldwide air travel today. The 707 first flew on December 20, 1957, and less than a year later it made its first commercial flight from New York to Paris. Initially fl…own mainly by Pan American, the Boeing 707 was soon operated by both domestic and international airlines around the world, and the popularity of the aircraft led to increased development of air-traffic-control systems, airport terminals, runways and airport infrastructure. The 707 remained in production until late 1978, by which time it was too small to handle the increased passenger densities on many routes, and it was retired to make way for more-modern jetliner types. By the end of production, a total of 1,010 aircraft had been built for civil use, though many of these subsequently found their way into military service, and purpose-built military variants remained in production until 1991. This book provides a fascinating portfolio of images depicting a wide range of Boeing 707 variants in service around the world, in passenger, cargo and military use. Like the aircraft itself, the photographs, taken at airports in North, Central and South America, Europe, Africa, the Middle East and Asia, span the world, showcasing many of the aircraft's diverse and colourful liveries. 180 illustrations.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. Collection of L-188s from around the world. Previously unpublished images. Part of Historic Commercial Aircraft Series. In January 1955, an industry-wide call from American Airlines for a new aircraft resulted in Lockheed's newest creation the L-188 Electra. American ordered 35 straight from… the drawing board, and this was quickly followed by Eastern Air Lines' order for 40 aircraft. Despite being a turboprop in an increasingly jet world, the Electra continued to be used by US airlines across the country, and the US military also used a prototype as the basis for the P-3 Orion anti-submarine aircraft. While the Electra found success in both North and South America, the sales to Europe were much more limited, with only KLM placing an order for the aircraft. The final iteration was the L-188C, which boasted increased fuel capacity and seating for up to 99 passengers. Owing to some serious accidents and speed restrictions in the late 1950s and early 1960s, newer Electras underwent strengthening of their nacelle and wing structure. There were 170 Electras built in total, and, incredibly, a few are still in service today. With over 180 images, this book details the L-188 Electra across the globe, showing the different variants and liveries throughout the years. AUTHOR: Ron Mak is an a freelance reporter for Airports of the World and Airliner World. He has also had several articles published in Warbirds International, Propliner magazine and several other magazines. Collection of L-188s from around the world. Previously unpublished images. Part of Historic Commercial Aircraft Series. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. In 1951, the French Ministry of Aviation announced a competition for a new medium-range aircraft. Sud Aviation's proposal for a twin-jet powered by Rolls- Royce Avon engines was accepted and went into production as the Caravelle, built at a plant near Toulouse Blagnac airport. Several Carave…lle variants appeared during the course of series production, beginning with the 64-passenger Caravelle 1 and progressing with technological advances to the Caravelle III with modernised engines of higher thrust. In 1964, the Super Caravelle model was put into production, with significantly improved aerodynamics and lower air resistance. The final development version was the Caravelle 12, which was longer than all previous versions and could carry up to 140 passengers. A total of 282 production examples was built until 1972, and these saw service with numerous airlines in a host of countries worldwide until the early years of the 21st century. Containing more than 200 unique, rare and previously unseen photos from across the globe, this book is testimony to the Caravelle's versatility as an advanced development that made jet aircraft a familiar fixture on medium-range routes. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
