This review is from: The Vital Guide to Commercial Aircraft and Airliners: The World's Current Major Civil Aircraft (Hardcover)
This is an excellent little book with pictures and technical information about not only airliners, but business jets. A must for anyone in the aircraft business or any enthusiast.

4.0 out of 5 stars
A useful but short reference to Airliners,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Vital Guide to Commercial Aircraft and Airliners: The World's Current Major Civil Aircraft (Hardcover)
This book is very useful for those who want to identify planes. It is a good size so you can take it along whenever on a trip or when just passing by the airport. It has a good amount of info on each plane but does lack a cut-out drawing which comes in handy for those wondering about the insides of planes. This is a great reference for those who want to identify planes or those who just want to research commercial aircraft. It works well with the Vital Guide to the Major Airlines of the World also.

This book goes with me anywhere I go. It's so handy to have!,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Vital Guide to Commercial Aircraft and Airliners: The World's Current Major Civil Aircraft (Hardcover)
The book size is perfect to put in your breifcase. I take it on all my vacations, and go to the airport a couple hours early to watch the planes and identify them with this book. I would rate it at 6 out of 5 stars, but I can't.
