Produktinformationen zu „Airlines of the Jet Age (ePub)“
Airlines of the Jet Age provides the first comprehensive history of the world's airlines from the early 1960s to the present day. It begins with an informative introductory chapter on the infancy of flight and the development of air-transport craft used during the First and Second World Wars, and then wings into the "first" Jet Age--the advent of jet airlines. It continues through the "second" Jet Age of wide-bodied aircraft, such as the Boeing 747 and DC-10, and closes with the introduction of the "third" Jet Age, which begins with the giant double-decked Airbus A380. This reference book is an unparalelled reference for aviation buffs, covering airlines around the globe and throughout the modern eras of human flight. The last book written by renowned airline historian R.E.G. Davies, Airlines of the Jet Age is the ultimate resource for information and insight on modern air transport.
Autoren-Porträt von R. E. G. Davies
R.E.G. Davies (1921-2011), the "dean of airline historians," was an eminent scholar of airline and aviation history. He was curator of air transport at the Smithsonian's National Air and Space Museum for nearly thirty years. Before joining the Smithsonian, he held positions with commercial airline companies on both sides of the Atlantic and served in both the British civil service and the British military, including as an army private during WWII. He authored or co-authored twenty five books on airlines and aviation during his life, earning him a well-deserved reputation as one of the most thoroughly knowledgeable and sincerely enthusiastic students of aviation history since the invention of human flight.
