Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This book is wonderful! The histories are detailed, but not so detailed as to bore the newcomer to aircraft, but has enough detail to hold the interest of the enthusiast. The full-color photographs are stunning. A must for aircraft enthusiasts of any kind.

Three-engined jetliners were in vogue in the fuel-conscious early 1970s, and for a while'three lumps' instead of ‘four' looked like the way ahead for wide-body jetliners, particularly as far as McDonell Douglas and Lockheed were concerned. However, the advent of more fuel-efficient powerplants has seen operators opt for either two- or four-engined designs, and today only the MD-11 remains in production, giving its manufacturer a toe-hold in the world's widebody jetliner business.
