{detailed description}For the first time in a full colour photographic book, a crucial but neglected aspect of civil aviation is addressed: the regional airliners, in this case the turboprops.
The regionals that plug into the major carriers at hubs such as LAX or Schipol are big business and worthy of the photographic talents of Norman Pealing, who has provided a truly global overview, from the world's most southerly airport to Winnipeg, from the Matterhorn to Manhattan.
The titanic struggle to survive in the overcrowded commuter airliner market is part of the story: can these aircraft withstand the challenge of the jet regional - and will props gain a new lease of life following another fuel crisis? Including cockpit shots, cutaway artwork, a wealth of air-to-air photography and some irresistible classics such as the Viscount and Vanguard, Turboprop Commuters fulfils a need in aviation publishing.
