Airliner World  |  September 2022
In the September 2022 edition of Airliner World, we pay tribute to legendary British entrepreneur and aviation pioneer, Sir Freddie Laker, as we mark the 100th anniversary of his birth. In our special coverage, we begin by charting the early days of Sir Freddie, look at his interesting business diversification in the post-war boom, explore the rise of Laker Airways and the iconic Skytrain service, before finally heading to The Bahamas. Plus, we have an EXCLUSIVE tribute to Sir Freddie from fellow British aviation entrepreneur, Sir Richard Branson.
Also in this issue, editor-at-large Gordon Smith grabbed a seat on the much-anticipated inaugural rotation of Norse Atlantic Airways, and we sat down with the airline’s CEO, Bjørn Tore Larsen, to learn more about the fledgling firm in the transatlantic market.
We find out about Airbus’ game-changing A321XLR as we travel to Hamburg, location of the type’s first flight, and we stay in Germany to find out how Condor’s recently introduced branding came about – and reaction to it. We also present a debrief of the major deals and developments from 2022’s Farnborough Airshow, explain the intriguing developments at some of London’s gateways, get a glimpse of Virgin Atlantic’s incoming A330neos, and present a fascinating retro snapshot of Rotterdam.
