This book is packed full of emotive colour shots of many classic American aeroplanes designed and built between 1916 and 1982. From the Curtiss Jenny to the Cessna Skywagon, you will meet such delights as the Beech Staggerwing, the Grumman Goose, the Stearman PT-17 and the Lockheed Constellation. Thirty-seven different types are included and amazingly they are still flying -- and that's where most are photographed, in their natural element -- the air.
