About This Item
Best-selling aviation author Bill Gunston examines and assesses 80 of the world's largest aircraft, including some which never managed to fly off the designer's drawing board. Supported by a wealth of illustrative material, some of which is rare and little-known, this is the first comprehensive review of giant aeroplanes ever to be published.
Pictorial d.j. with bumps to top and bottom of spine, plus a little chipping and rubbing to the rear panel.
