Book Reviews of Concorde (Airliner Color History)

Book Review: An excellent look at the Aerospatiale / BAC Concorde
Summary: 5 Stars

Each volume of this British series covers a unique commercial aircraft type from its design, production, entry into service, its usage by airlines, and in some cases eventual demise.

Each volume features plenty of color and black and white photographs of the subject aircraft along with a complete construction list (accurate to date of publication for aircraft types still being built).

This volume covers, unfortunately, almost the entire operational life of this amazing aircraft. The only successful SuperSonic passenger airliner (there was only one other - the Russian Tupolev Tu-144 (which actually flew first)) the Concorde has plied the skyways between London and Paris and New York City.

Always interesting and always able to draw a crowd of on-lookers, this elegent airliner is about to ffly its last flight as Airbus Industrie has declined to continue supporting the existing fleet of aircraft. Fortunately ... both Air France and British Airways have decided to donate all of the airframes to aviation museums located around the world ... so that future generations may marvel at what could have been the next revolution in commercial air travel.
