5.0 out of 5 stars Absolutely fantastic!, March 23, 1999

This review is from: The Vital Guide to Major Airlines of the World: Over 100 Leading Airlines, Complete with Fleet Lists (Hardcover)

I'm certainly an airline enthusiast and this book is among the best I've ever read. The color photos are clear, the information accurate, the layout readable and the book amazing. Over 300 photographs on 121 pages makes this the perfect book for the airline lover and spotter. A feature I especially enjoyed was the list of airlines' planes complete with their registration numbers. Fantastic.

5.0 out of 5 stars Good Book For Anyone Who is Intrested in Airlines, January 15, 1999

This facinating, must-have guide for home or the airport is great. There are many Vital Guides To... but this is my favorite. It Has 100's of color photos of airliners. Has only the biggest airlines from all over the world. I have also read (and still use) The Vital Guide to Commercial Aircraft and Airliners, and that was almost as good. Also, I reccomend Airways North American Airlines handbook. Both all three are great and available through amazon.com.
