A detailed text traces the evolution of the airplanes and society. An exceptional collection of the most beautiful aircraft of the era-a feast of pure nostalgia!
Concorde, arguably one of the most elegant airliners ever produced, was known as the peoples' aircraft. From the early planning stages, to its withdrawal from service and subsequent display as a museum exhibit, this book tells the story of an iconic aircraft that was the result of a unique collaboration between the aviation industries of Britain and France. Illustrated with stunning images, it tells how the aviation industries of the two countries united to produce the world's first successful supersonic airliner.
