{detailed description}Here is a detailed history of the world's major airlines* profusely illustrated with full-page photographs of nearly every type of commercial aircraft in use since World War I.
This memorable book covers the inception and growth of such airlines as Lufthansa, Air France, Quantas, American, Pan American, TWA, Sabena, KLM, Alitalia, Trans Canada, and many more.
More than 100 photos of rare and brand-new transports are included, such as the seldom-seen Curtiss Kingbird and Condor, Fokker F2 and F20, Ryan M-1, DeHaviland DH-9, Boeing 80-A Trimotor, Bleriot 27, Dornier Merkur, and Douglas DC-5.
The unusual pictures and authoritative commentary make this valuable collection of aircraft memorabilia a delight for collectors, enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the history of man's conquest of the skies.

* but, strangely, no British airlines-BEA, BOAC.

Over 100 b&w photos, many arranged as a single plate per page in landscape orientation.
