Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is a nice looking, well illustrated, book on the 737 from England. It is fairly comprehensive, although there are some errors in the text. Having said that, the errors are not particularly egregious, and would not be readily apparent (or significant in a meaningful way) to the average reader (I am an airline pilot who had to fly the 737 for about two years, and admittedly strongly prefer flying competing products.)
Overall, this is one of the nicer books on the 737 available, but I gave it three stars because of the aforementioned minor errors, and the fact that I don't really think it is a very good value, as it is rather expensive for what you get. Even though there are inaccuracies in the MBI books by Sharpe and Shaw (in two volumes) as well, they are readily available, have roughly equivalent coverage, and are available at a much better price for what you get. The volume on the 737-100 and -200 is the better of the two books in the MBI series by Sharpe and Shaw.
