Synopsis

Title: This Flying Business
Author/Publisher: Wal Davies (Nelson)
Publication Year: 1976
Format: Hardcover with Dust Jacket

Wal Davies' 'This Flying Business' offers a fascinating non-fiction exploration into the world of aviation, published in 1976. As a first edition, this hardcover work delves into the intricate subject of airplanes and the broader industry surrounding them.

The title itself suggests a focus beyond mere technical specifications, likely examining the practical, operational, or commercial facets of flight. Readers can anticipate insights into the challenges, innovations, and perhaps the evolving landscape of air travel and aircraft development during the period covered by Davies.

  • Aviation's Commercial Landscape: Davies likely explores the economic and logistical considerations that shaped the aviation industry, from aircraft design and manufacturing to route planning and air traffic management.
  • The Evolution of Flight: Being an aviation book from 1976, it would offer a contemporary look at the advancements and historical trajectory of aircraft technology and air travel up to that pivotal point in the industry.

For collectors of aviation history and enthusiasts of vintage non-fiction, 'This Flying Business' by Wal Davies represents a noteworthy first edition. It offers a period perspective on the dynamics of flight and aircraft, making it a valuable addition to any specialist library.
