Book Synopsis Wings Across Canada by : Peter Pigott

Download or read book Wings Across Canada written by Peter Pigott and published by Dundurn. This book was released on 2002-10-01 with total page 189 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the eccentric Fairey Battle to the lethal-looking CF-18, from modern airliners that have no defects (and no character) to the classic North Star (which had both), here is the ultimate line-up of the aircraft that have served Canadians in the last century. With over one hundred photographs of fifty historic planes, Wings Across Canada is a retrospective of Canada’s aeronautical technology. This book does not compare the planes, nor claim that all are "classics" in the traditional sense of the word. Instead, it is a celebration of a love affair with aircraft that all served a purpose in their own time.
