Zustand: very good condition. First Edition - First Printing - - This excellently illustrated book is a rare compilation of Lufthansa' history. You will find a well selected collection of information and spectacular maps of the old routes flown by Lufthansa in the past, never shown in any other publication. Also included are rare photos of Lufthansa aircraft of the past together with side view illustrations of selected aircraft, the rare color logos of Eurasia, SCADTA, DeruLuft and others and a colored "Anecestry of Deutsche Luft Hansa" from 1918 to 1928. - Highly recommended! - - Germany's national airline, Lufthansa, traces its heritage to the earliest years of aviation. By 1919, when Lufthansa's first progenitor, Deutsche Luft-Reederei, established the crane symbol still proudly carried today, the German public was already air-borne: Count Zeppelin's airships had carried more than ten thousand paying passengers before World War I, generating a flying start for Lufthansa's ancestors. - During its formative years the airline mirrored the progress of German aviation technology. The all-metal Junkers F 13 of 1919 was years ahead of its time. Its direct descendant, the Junkers-Ju 52/3m - Tante Ju - was built in greater numbers than any other transport aircraft except the DC-3. The 1926 Rohrbach Roland's box-spar wing and stressed skin heralded the multicellular construction still standard today. And Lufthansa launched other pacesetting types, from the 1938 transatlantic Focke-Wulf Condor to the Airbus family of the 1980s. - The author's exhaustive research turned up much noteworthy new material, in-cluding a comprehensive genealogy of Lufthansa's numerous ancestors, succinct surveys and adventures of overseas associates, and innovative transoceanic experiments with catapult-launched aircraft. - As in Pan Am, the first book in this series, Lufthansa: An Airline and Its Aircraft is filled with meticulously compiled tables of vital data; scores of photographs, some never before published; and Mike Machat's süperb, painstakingly accurate aircraft drawings. 90 p. many photos, illustrations and maps Original cloth binding with dust jacket, large format.

This excellently illustrated book is a rare compilation of Imperial Airways' and the other predecessors to British Airways history. You will find a well selected collection of information and spectacular maps of the old routes flown in the past, never shown in any other publication. Also included are rare photos of the aircraft of the past together with side view illustrations of selected aircraft. - Highly recommended! - - Many books have been written about the early history of the British airlines, from their infancy through their maturity and adulthood. In the case of British Airways, its ancestoral infancy and adolescence took many forms, and this is possibly the first book that follows the some-times complex relationships that led, first, to the formation of Imperial Airways, and, later, to the formation of British Airways, that is, the pre-war one that merged with Imperial to form B.O.A.C. in 1939. - The text is illustrated with profile drawings of all the main types, together with the elegant paintings of lan Marshall and Edmund Miller. The remote developments, from a single cross-channel flight to Paris in 1919 to an Empire-embracing network in 1939, on the eve of the Second World War, are shown by the author's maps. There are photographs at every stage, to emphasize the progress made from open-cockpit single-engined planes (converted from light bombers of the Great War of 1914-18) to the elegant flying boats that were able to add modernity to the romance and adventure that characterized air transport during the 1920s and 1930s. - Thanks to the accurate technical support of veteran author-historian John Stroud, the fleets of every type are tabulated; and author/pilot/publisher Mike Machat has supervised the artwork. - Altogether, for all enthusiasts of airlines and air transport history, The Imperial Years should be a pleasure to peruse and also to serve as a reliable reference source for any library bookshelf. 108 p. many photos, illustrations and maps book very good condition, dustjacket good condition Original cloth binding with dust jacket, large format.

Zustand: very good condition. bi-language edition: English - Portuguese - - This is the sixth in our series of books on the Great Airlines of the World, and is notable for three reasons: it is our first venture into Latin America; the first book to be printed in two languages; and the first time that Paladwr Press has asked artist Mike Machat to portray every color scheme, rather than a selection of the ones in general use by each aircraft type. - Machat's Law states that, of any single type of airliner, no two aircraft in the service of a Company are painted exactly the same. Now, with TransBrasil, our artist has had a field day - or, rather, several months of intriguing and dedicated effort. Because, for several years, every Sadia or TransBrasil individual airplane was graced with a different color scheme. Several of them had more than one each. The Boeing 727 alone had no less than nineteen. - Such an approach reflects the colorful personality and romantic nature of the airline's founder. Dr. Omar Fontana has guided the fortunes of his airline through thick and thin, during a period of four decades. He started with a single Douglas DC-3, borrowed for a weekend to test out a brilliant idea, and now operates a handsome fleet which includes long-range Boeing 767ERs on intercontinental prestige routes. - Paladwr Press was well supported from the airline's own records, and was also been aided by the world-wide fraternity of airline enthusiasts, whose combined researches have been augmented by our Technical Editor, John Wegg. Tracing the ancestry and subsequent fate of some of the Veteran aircraft was a task that would have daunted Sherlock Holmes himself. - Today's aircraft now have a standard color design on their tails, still echoing Fontana's desire for dramatic presentation, but also providing the unofficial description of TransBrasil as the Rainbow Airline. 64 p. many photographs and maps, many precision drawings by Mike Machat Original cloth binding with dust jacket, large format.

Zustand: excellent condition, new copy. This easily read biography highlights Charles A. Lindbergh s career in aviation. You will find a rare collection of information and spectacular maps of all his flights in Europe, Asia, America and Africa flown when aviation was still in its early years. - - In this, the seventieth anniversary year of Charles Lindbergh's epoch-making flight of 1927, Paladwr Press marks the event with one of its books, in the style which has hitherto been restricted in subject material to the histories of various airlines. We did this not because anything new needed to be said about a man who was possibly the greatest pilot, measured by his achievements, in aviation history; but because we feit that too much emphasis has in the past been placed on that astonishing New York-Paris nonstop flight, and not enough on his other accomplishments in the air. - His solid planning work for the great airlines Pan American and T.W.A. has almost been forgotten. His campaigning to popularize flying, by taking his Spirit of St. Louis to every one of the 48 States is remembered only sporadically. In some otherwise authoritative books on his life, Charles and Anne Lindbergh's flights around the northern Pacific and both the northern and southern perimeters of the Atlantic Oceans have been given insufficient emphasis. - In our book we have tried to restore the balance and at the same time to draw attention to the considerable lifetime achievement by some detailed maps that support the narrative and by Mike Machat's customarily superb drawings of the most important aircraft associated with the great flights. We have described briefly his early life and the disciplined and largely self-taught training that made him into such an extraordinary aviator. We have not forgotten either that, in addition to the work for expanding the scope of air transport, he did an enormous amount of flying for pleasure and for other business-associated reasons. Also, during the Second World War, he crossed the Pacific once again, and did some imaginative flying and constructive analysis, in the face of the enemy. - This book concentrates on Charles Lindbergh the pilot, and we have touched only marginally on other aspects of his life. But we could not ignore reference to his child's kidnapping; nor to his involvement with the isolationist movement in the United States in the immediate pre-war years. This latter could not be passed over as if it was unimportant, and we trust that readers will feel that we have dealt fairly with this controversial episode in a truly eventful career. Most of all, we hope that they will be entertained with a Lindbergh life presented in a manner that is both visually pleasing yet at the same time factually informative. 56 p. many photos, illustrations and maps Original cloth binding with dust jacket.
