Book excerpt: Since the publication of the very popular first edition of Airliners Worldwide in 1997, there have been many changes to the fleets employed by the operators, and, of course, many of the illustrations (even two out of three on the front cover) are now history. In addition, some aircraft types have been withdrawn or not developed, including Concorde, the Handley Page Herald, IAI Arava, IPTN N250, Let L610 and SE210 Caravelle. New types which have appeared or are under development include the Embraer 195 and 170, the Antonov An-140, Airbus A318, and Airbus A380. Thus the coverage in this new edition of this valuable guidebook will be markedly different, up to the minute and indispensable. The text for each type has been revised and updated where necessary. Each type has a historical narrative and description of model variants and type of operations, and has the principal technical details such as dimensions, capacity, powerplants, and performance - and a listing of all current operators. The photographic selection is all new and has been updated with the latest eye-catching and interesting color schemes where possible.
