Beginning with Orville Wright's historic, 12-minute flight at Kitty Hawk in 1903, the hundred-year story of aviation has been one of breathtaking technological advances, remarkable human ingenuity, and great bravery on the part of many individuals. All of the major historical events in this tremendous history are chronicled in this fact-filled directory that covers both military and civil aircraft - fighters and airliners, helicopters and space shuttles - and the men who flew them. Concise technical details are given for selected key machines marking the most significant advances in aviation history, all superbly illustrated with dramatic action photos.
