Airliner World  |   October 2021
In the October 2021 edition of Airliner World we celebrate the 100th anniversary of the Douglas Aircraft Company. We highlight some of the key developments from the pioneering firm with not one, but three in-depth articles to whet your appetite for all things Douglas, including the DC-7, DC-9 and mighty MD-11.
Elsewhere, we shift our focus to the future as we offers an exclusive flight training guide which is a must-read for anyone considering a career as a commercial airline pilot. It provides prospective aviators with an industry overview, training route pathways, showcase what cadets could expect at flight school, personal anecdotes and useful advice from professional pilots such as Captain Chris Pohl.
This bumper issue doesn’t stop there as we don our thermals and head to the frozen continent for a whistle-stop aerial tour of Antarctica with Qantas aboard one of their former Boeing 747s; we explain the history of such special flights, while analysing the logistics and planning involved. Elsewhere, we look at another US-built quad jet legend as we investigate the sad story of the recently scrapped pair of 707-400s in Germany. Finally, don’t miss out on our final instalment of 2021’s start-up airlines, as we focus on carriers beyond European shores.
