The fouth installment in this incredibly popular series provides aviation enthusiasts with in-depth analyses, accident-scene photography and specially commissioned artwork that examine news-making civil aviation accidents. Written in a narrative style, this volume departs from its predecessors by focusing on major propliner accidents of the 1950s and '60s-a subject which has seldom been addressed in book form. All of the accidents discussed are accompanied by the official investigations and the conclusions of the examiners involved. The author also explains how the accidents instigated significant changes in civil aviation and routine safety procedures.Paperback, 8-1/2 x 11, 192 pp, 200 b/w

Boeing claimed the 707 as the airplane that made the world smaller and horizons larger. The DC-8 was developed a little later than the 707 and as a result was always playing catch up. Despite being a fine aircraft, the VC10 was too late to seriously challenge the 707 and DC-8, but today soldiers on in military service with the RAF as tankers and transports. This detailed work is filled with highlights of each aircrafts development plus a broad overview of its operational history. Legends of the Air 6. Sftbd., 8 1/4x 11, 186 pgs., 225 bandw ill., 60 color.
