Summary: An excellent look at the Lockheed Constellation
Comment: The Airlife's Classic Airliner series of books cover individual commercial aircraft types in an interesting, in-depth manner.

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).

Volume 2 covers the Lockheed Constellation series of aircraft ... including most, if not all of the many derivatives and provides an interesting look at the genesis of this long-range inter-continental piston airliner.

Rating: 5
Summary: A really worthwhile new Connie book
Comment: Although dozens (maybe scores or even hundreds)of books have been written about this most beautiful of propliners, this is a very worthy addition and one which all propliner buffs should buy.

The book is very well written, gives the full Connie story and is profusely illustrated with dozens of colour photos, most of which date from the 1940s and 1950s and a very large number of which I had never seen before.

Also, there is a full production list of Connies, with their fates-an invaluable reference source.

I did wonder, before buying this book, if I really needed yet another book about even so beautiful an aircraft, but by the time I finished reading this, I knew I had made a very worthwhile purchase-strongly recommended.
