by Peter R March (Author)
The Boeing 747, more commonly known as the 'Jumbo Jet', is probably the most recognised of all modern airliners, and for many years was the largest passenger airliner in service. Peter March describes the Jumbo Jet's development and its service history with the world's airlines. He includes a wide range of interesting facts and figures about an aircraft that has become one of the most recognisable icons of modern air travel. His concise but engaging narrative is complemented by a selection of 80 high-quality colour photographs showing the 747 in service.
