Introduction
Description
From the late 1940s to the mid 1960s, air travel was still an adventure, with propeller driven airliners reaching their zenith and civilian jet applications just arriving on scene. And there was also the glamour: after dining on fine china bearing the airline's logo, passengers could retire to roomy sleeping berths or an on-board cocktail bar. Geza Szurovy revisits the golden age of air travel with this look back at the histories and aircraft of the most notable United States airlines. Archival photography depict classic airliners like the Lockheed Constellation and McDonnell Douglas DC-3.
