As an airline pilot with time in quite a few different types, I can honestly say that of all the types currently in widespread use, the A-320 series is my favorite (although I suspect I would like the A-330 even more.) This is a small book devoted to the A-320, and it is mainly a book of photographs. The illustrations are generally excellent, but the book is very short, and the text is very general.

Honestly, I was torn between three and four stars here, but went with four due to the quality of the photographs. It isn't that this is a bad book; it is just very brief, and fairly insubstantial in terms of text, although in fairness it is from the "Airline Markings" series, and it does cover that aspect of the A-320 well.

The A-320 is a dream to fly, and if you want a great little book chock full of photos of A-320s, this is a good one.

The book contains at least one photo and brief description of the airline operating the A320. Very concise and interesting for those who want to have Airliner References in their bookshelf. Due to the increasing popularity of the A320 family there are some airlines missing in the list - but that's beyond the author's capabilities. A few photos are of an average quality but most of them are very good.

I would say that this book is nice, with many nice photos and descriptions of an operator's colour scheme.
