The book includes chapters on airliners, regional jets, turboprops and business aircraft. Discover the Airbus A380, the largest and most spacious passenger aircraft today; explore the Embraer E-Jet family, a series that revolutionised regional jet travel with its efficiency and performance; learn about the venerable Boeing 737, with more than 11,000 aircraft still operated in almost 200 countries since first flying in the 1960s; and be amazed at the long-serving Beechcraft King Air, a twin-turboprop utility aircraft produced continuously since 1964. Each featured profile includes authentic markings and paint schemes, while every separate model is accompanied by exhaustive specifications. Packed with 100 vivid artworks, Modern Civil Aircraft is a key reference guide for aircraft modellers and aviation enthusiasts.
