Book Description
Airwork Ltd/Airwork Services, now owned by VT group plc, has a long and distinguished history. It played an important role in defence support services to the RAF, Fleet Air Arm and overseas air forces, as well as in the development of civil aviation. Created at Heston in 1928, it maintained Whitley bombers and de Havilland Tiger Moths in the 1930s and established the precursors of the post-WW2 airlines of Egypt, India and Rhodesia. Post-war it was the first airline to be awarded a troop flying contract and expanded into civil aviation, developing flights to Africa and the US. The main independent airline in the 1950s, it became part of British United Airways in 1960, also establishing many airlines around the world, including Deutsche Flugdienst (Condor), Misr-Airwork (Egyptair), and the Sudanese National Airline. Here Keith McCloskey presents the first history of this important airline and reveals its impact on aviation history.

Book Description
Indian Airlines Corporation is the second largest domestic airline in terms of passenges carried outside the United States. Though some studies on air transportationin India have been undertaken, they are neither comprehensive nor systematic. Besides, several problems faced by it are coming to surface in recent times. Frequent hikes in passenger fares without correspondign improvement of efficiency, unreliability of services owing mainly to delays and cancellations of flights, accidents and inadequate fleet due to resource constraints are some of the important problems which call for a searching enquiry into the performance of Indian Airlines. The present study is preceded by a brief review of the existing research and literature on different aspects of air transportationin India and the world witha focus on matters like evolution, history, costs and revenues, pattern of traffic, demand and supply, safety and allied matters. This is followed by the discussion tracing the history and trends of civil aviation in India and also gives an account of various institutions both Indian and non-Indian working towards its healthy growth.
