All decades of aviation have important developments and changes. In the 2000s, the European Airbus consortium finally overtook Boeing as the major producer of airliners, with a full range from the smallest, the A318, to the largest of all passenger aircraft, the A380. It saw the early jets either disappear or get converted to haul freight. The old piston-powered props still served in remote parts of the world but in declining numbers. On a sad note, the 2000s saw the final Concorde services, bringing to an end the era of supersonic passenger flights for perhaps many years to come. With over 300 colour photographs with extended and informative captions, this book details the many facets of commercial air transport around the world, from the smallest to the largest airlines.
The appeal of vintage aircraft lies in its social and military history, the engineering and evolutionary innovations demanded by sophisticated conflicts, as well as the landmark achievements of the aircraft and their pilots.Included in this, the second of three volumes, are a mix of new and old, fast jets, warbirds, bombers, helicopters and vintage light aircraft from around Europe. Some are rare, including prototypes that never made it into production, while others are mass-produced, with pivotal roles in armed conflict, or led the way in commercial flights.Included in their number are record-breakers and workhorses of the aviation world. Each entry features a photograph and description of the aircraft type and its background history as well as the locations where it can be found today.This book features over 180 color pictures of preserved military and commercial aircraft found in Europe.
Taking the reader on a visual journey across the globe, this book explores some of the most popular airliners of the time, including Boeing, Airbus, and McDonnell Douglas, and how their aircraft developed throughout the decade.
In 2016, North Korea hosted its first ever airshow and invited foreign visitors. None of the military aircraft are ever seen outside their borders, and the airline only operates limited services. Not only does the book give a fully illustrated look at North Korea's military and civilian aircraft, it also gives a look at the country itself.
With over 230 images, this book covers all the aircraft types used in the water bomber role - World War Two fighters and bombers, piston-powered airliners and cargo aircraft of the 1950s, turboprop aircraft, wide-body jets, as well as the custom-built water bombers and, finally, both large and small helicopters with tanks or under-slung loads.
