Aerei di linea: libri illustrati di storia e guide

Airliners of the 1990s

The 1990s brought with it many important developments for the aviation world. The dissolution of the USSR and Yugoslavia led to a rise of new countries and airlines. The aircraft faced changes as well.
The early jetliners found themselves hauling cargo in many cases, and the new wide-bodies became the normal mode of passenger transport for long-haul travel, along with the creation of a whole new generation of types for short-haul. However, in parts of the world the old piston-powered props could be found plodding on, albeit in declining numbers.

With over 300 color photographs and extended, informative captions, this book reflects the many ways in which the air transport industry changed during the decade.
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.

Legendäre Jetliner - Aufbruch ins Düsenzeitalter

This volume by Wolfgang Borgmann deals with the jet airliners that emerged in the 1950s and 1960s, which almost halved travel time and were much more comfortable and reliable than the propeller aircraft that became obsolete overnight.
Due to their high speed and also the larger passenger capacity, ticket prices fell considerably, making air travel a means of mass transport.

The early jets exuded an irrepressible fascination with "higher, faster, further", which is reflected here in an exciting mixture of contemporary images and technical information about the aircraft.

Die Giganten der Luftfahrt - Abschied von Jumbo-Jet und A380

Quando il jumbo jet decollò per la prima volta nel 1969, il mondo intero rimase sbalordito. Rivoluzionò il trasporto aereo. Quasi 40 anni dopo, l'A380 lo superò, portando Airbus allo stesso livello di Boeing.
Questo volume, ricco di immagini, ripercorre la creazione di questi e altri giganti dell'aria, ognuno dei quali rappresenta di per sé una straordinaria conquista tecnica. Il libro fa rivivere la loro storia, e quindi la storia del trasporto aereo moderno, attraverso numerosi dettagli e informazioni di contesto.

Faszination Buschfliegerei - Abenteuer im Outback

Bush planes have a very special place in aviation and both they and their pilots represent freedom and adventure, because they take you to places that are usually not accessible by other means of transport: picturesque and remote areas with rivers, lakes or beaches that a package tourist is unlikely to find.

Propellerflugzeuge - Verkehrsmaschinen seit 1945 (Typenkompass)

At the end of the Second World War, the development of piston engines had reached its absolute peak. Such engines powered powerful passenger planes that are still considered legendary today.
The complicated and trouble-prone engines were eventually replaced by the newly emerging turboprop engine. Turboprop-powered aircraft now conquered the skies, such as the Vickers Viscount or the Lockheed Electra.
To this day, propeller aircraft are one of the mainstays of civil aviation. This would simply be impossible without the "feeder" aircraft on short and medium-haul routes.
