Widebody Jets: Reissue 2022

Since their introduction in the 1970s widebody aircraft have become an iconic sight in our skies, a workhorse of long-haul travel. From the original Boeing 747 through to the Airbus A380, these twin-aisle aircraft have had a profound effect on aviation from opening up new travel corridors for many, aiding economic growth and the transportation of time-sensitive goods, to changing the design of airports with their need for larger hangars and passenger bridges. Widebody Jets is a much anticipated special publication covering the history of this aircraft family, its variants, the competition between Airbus and Boeing and potential new kids on the block.
