Kennett Lee.
THE FIRST AIR WAR 1914-1918.
New York: Free Press 1991. 275 pp large 8vo 9 7/16" H. B&w photographs. "Tells the complete story of the Great War's air battles from eastern and western front from the skies and seas of Europe to those of the Middle East and Africa. Based on exhaustive research - official records scholarly works diaries correspondence memoirs and oral history transcripts - this unique history traces the airplane's prewar debut and development and its appeal to all belligerents large and small who raced to develop their own designs strategies and tactics. Kennett shows how the plane used first as a frail 'flying observation platform' evolved into a weapon of destruction and death whose power was made incontrovertible by 1916 at the great battle of Verdun. While he chronicles the struggle for dominance in the air the author also provides insight into the role of flying weaponry in the great land battles. As the combat role of these amazing machines became more defined their use became more diverse as witnessed by the development of massed fighters the emergence of close air support strategic bombing and anti-aircraft defenses and the introduction of escort and patrol work and anti-submarine warfare at sea. Here to are the daring men who volunteered to pilot these newfangled machines. Following them through flight school and into fighting units Kennett dramatically recreates both the dangers of airborne combat and the boisterous romantic world of the squadron on the ground." Book lightly cocked in one illustration section. Dust jacket has minor wrinkling at top/bottom of hinges and flap-folds corner crease on rear flap. Book Club Edition. Hard Cover. Very Good/Very Good.

Flight of the Titans : Boeing Airbus and the Battle for the Future of Air Travel
Virgin London 2006. Trade Paperback. Near Fine. In the Super Bowl of the airline industry there are two opposing sides: Airbus of Europe versus Boeing of America. Both sides have only one goal - to become the world's leading aircraft maker. This is the remarkable account of Airbus' launch of the largest passenger plane ever to fly how they risked everything in a heavyweight contest where the money is staggering and the political stakes are high. The Airbus A380 will be a monster above the clouds with gyms a nightclub in the sky and a 550 passenger capacity vs Boeing's super efficient long distance Dreamliner's 200-350. Will the A380 super-jumbo succeed when it is launched in 2006 With Boeing determined that it will fail the stakes are high. This amazing story of rivalry and risk is a fascinating insight to both Airbus and Boeing as they take their steps to take-off. Quantity Available: 1. Category: Aviation; ISBN: 0753510146.
