If you are interested in the development of airliners and airlines in the first 50 years (i.e. up to the late 60's) this is a great source book. It explains why different designs succeeded - why the DC3 was so hard to replace, why Jets displaced piston-engine aircraft so quickly etc. (economics my dear Watson). There is a lot of data on relative operating costs and a peek ahead to the likely impact of the wide-bodies about to come into service.
For the serious enthusiast this is a good buy.
The book is nice condition with the exception that the first page has a written remark and several pages have yellow-highlighting of interest, binding are tight and strong. Has numerous Black and White Photos.
This book has been in our family library for a long time and rarely used. This is a CASH Sale only, No Checks. Can provide more pictures upon request. We can meet at a local "safe place" so you to review the book and then decide if you would like it. Thank you for looking and considering this book on Craigslist. Would consider shipping with buyer paying for the cost.
