Airliner World Magazine August 2016 Zurück Ausgabe

In the August issue of Airliner World, we find out how MIAT-Mongolian Airlines is following in the footsteps of Genghis Khan and to put its home nation firmly on the tourist map. We also shine the spotlight on the Boeing 737 MAX, the latest iteration of the US manufacturer’s best-selling narrowbody series, and we profile Düsseldorf Airport, which continues to offer passengers a viable alternative to Northern Europe’s major hubs.

Elsewhere in this edition, we put the powerful Pilatus PC-6 through its paces, remember Brazil’s former flag carrier VARIG and we chat with UK-based POP (People Over Profit), a start-up carrier with a difference.

Lastly, we bring you our comprehensive coverage of worldwide news, including the latest updates and developments from Airbus’ innovation days, French premium carrier La Compagnie reflects on a year of operations at London/Luton, Alitalia unveils new cabin crew uniforms and Irkut rolls out its maiden MC-21. We also have all of our regular sections covering the latest commercial aircraft acquisitions, up-to-date accident reports and developments from the world of aviation training and MROs, and we give you the chance to win a year’s subscription in our caption competition.
