The world of giant aircraft is a fascinating genre swirling with human dreams, romance, unreasonableness, and recklessness. The popular bi-monthly scale aviation series "The Era of Giant Planes," which explores the world of eccentric and super-class large machines from ancient times to now, will be published in one volume! The giant aircraft has a long history; in 1914, just 11 years after the first manned flight by the Wright Flyer in 1903, Russia's four-engine large biplane, the Sikorsky Ilya Muromets, made its maiden flight. Since then, it seems that aircraft have kept increasing in size in order to carry more people and things. This book covers the construction of these aircraft and episodes featuring the colorful people surrounding them. Order yours today!
