Today all that has changed. The supersonic Concorde, developed at a cost of more than £1,000 million, fills newspaper headlines almost daily, making there-and-back flights across the Atlantic while a Boeing 747 completes a one-way journey, yet having to battle against those who wish to see it scrapped.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe big 350-passenger Jumbos themselves shuttle impressively over long distances, day after day, year after year, as modern counterparts of pre-war luxury ocean liners but offering fares within the reach of millions who never imagined they would fly. At the other extreme, crowds at air displays thrill to the aerobatic skill of individuals in tiny Pitts Special biplanes; while pilots in what is called \"general aviation\" save lives by flying injured persons to hospital, save time by airlifting crews to oil rigs off the coast, and save crops by spraying them with insecticides and weed-killers.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eCivil Aircraft of the World provides an accurate and up-to-the-minute reference work on aircraft in each of these categories, and many more. Every type is illustrated with a photograph, supplemented by silhouette drawings of all the major types of airliners or civil freight-planes in service or under development. The result is a book so comprehensive and reliable that it will satisfy the requirements of both the professional aircraft engineer and the enthusiast, spotter or modelmaker.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"John W.R.
