DOWNLOAD EBOOKBEA was formed in 1946 and took over most UK domestic and European routes under the British government's nationalisation policy. It began operations with a fleet of outdated and hopelessly uneconomic passenger aircraft that were derivatives of wartime types such as the DC-3, Avro Viking and Rapide. By the end of 1955 the airline had re-equipped with more modern types such as the jet-prop Viscount and moved into a profit for the first time. From 1960 onwards the airline introduced larger jets such as the Comet, Trident and BAC 1-11. BEA merged with the British Overseas Airways Corporation in 1974 to form British Airways. This book looks at BEA's predecessors, its formation and early operation from Croydon and Northolt and the move to the newly-opened London Heathrow. The evolving structure is explained with chapters covering engineering bases, terminals, European and domestic services, cargo services and helicopter operations. The aircraft flown are all described in detail and the book includes anecdotes from former crew and ground-staff, a full fleet list and is highly illustrated throughout.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAerolot was the first regular airline in Poland. It was formed in 1922 by three co-owners of the largest oil producing company in former Austria-Hungary with the main intention being to offer transportation between the different oil fields. In 1928, Aerolot, together with two other Polish airlines (Silesian Air Society and Aero), was nationalized and merged to form LOT Polish Airlines. Before the start of the World War II, the airline had carried 218,000 passengers. Services were suspended after the outbreak of the war and many aircraft were evacuated to Romania, Baltic States and Great Britain. After the liberation of Poland by Soviet troops, the Polish Air Force maintained some basic transportation in the country, and in 1945, LOT was recreated by the government as a state-owned enterprise. In 1997, LOT established its subsidiary Eurolot to take over domestic routes, and in 2003, the airline would join the Star Alliance. By that time the airline carried some 3 million passengers per year. In 2004, LOT created a low-cost subsidiary Centralwings but after just five years of operations, the subsidiary was dissolved and reincorporated in LOT. In 2010/2011, the airline started its 'East meets West' policy, adding many destinations in Asia to its network, thus taking advantage of increased passenger numbers of flights between Europe and Asia. Since then, the airline has obtained modern equipment like the Boeing 737Max 8 and Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Illustrated with over 140 photographs, this book details the history of LOT from its inception to the present day.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis definitive book offers the first full study of the development of the European Union's air-transport policy. Crucial to both globalization and regional integration, commercial aviation, along with other transport industries, provides the logistics for business activities, political life, and contact between cultures. Exploring the long struggle to create a "Europe of the air" through both regulatory change and airline strategizing, Martin Staniland examines the political bargains that have shaped a highly fragmented industry and its regulation. An invaluable case-study in industrial policy, this book will be essential reading for students of aviation, as well as for scholars interested in regulatory change and European integration.
Command Of The Air

DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn the pantheon of air power spokesmen, Giulio Douhet holds center stage. His writings, more often cited than perhaps actually read, appear as excerpts and aphorisms in the writings of numerous other air power spokesmen, advocates-and critics. Though a highly controversial figure, the very controversy that surrounds him offers to us a testimonial of the value and depth of his work, and the need for airmen today to become familiar with his thought. The progressive development of air power to the point where, today, it is more correct to refer to aerospace power has not outdated the notions of Douhet in the slightest In fact, in many ways, the kinds of technological capabilities that we enjoy as a global air power provider attest to the breadth of his vision. Douhet, together with Hugh “Boom” Trenchard of Great Britain and William “Billy” Mitchell of the United States, is justly recognized as one of the three great spokesmen of the early air power era. This reprint is offered in the spirit of continuing the dialogue that Douhet himself so perceptively began with the first edition of this book, published in 1921. Readers may well find much that they disagree with in this book, but also much that is of enduring value. The vital necessity of Douhet’s central vision-that command of the air is all important in modern warfare-has been proven throughout the history of wars in this century, from the fighting over the Somme to the air war over Kuwait and Iraq.
