SynopsisOne of the most elegantly designed airliners to ever grace the skies was the Lockheed Constellation. This book charts the propliner's design and development from prewar proposals to the sophisticated Starliners of the 1950s. Operational use and airlines that flew the "Connie" are detailed, as are several military variants that developed early in the Cold War. A technical "walk-around" and descriptions of the differences between variants are included, and the volume concludes with a look at the surviving aircraft., One of the most elegantly designed airliners to ever grace the skies was the Lockheed Constellation.
