Airliner World Magazine November 2022 Retour à l'édition précédente

In the November 2022 edition of Airliner World, we’ve an exclusive preview of KLM’s brand-new Premium Comfort cabin. Editor-at-large Gordon Smith tested the product first-hand as he grabbed a much-anticipated seat onboard a Boeing 787-10 Dreamliner between Schiphol and New York/JFK. We speak to key senior figures from the project team to gain their insight into KLM’s first clean-sheet cabin since the introduction of World Business Class.

Elsewhere, we head to Florida to check out Orlando’s game-changing new South Terminal C. We discover how this multi-billion-dollar investment will give passengers a memorable experience while simultaneously helping the airport to serve the rapidly growing market in the Sunshine State.

Other highlights include the second instalment of our special SOFIA coverage as we fly not once, but twice onboard the iconic stargazing 747SP ahead of the jet’s impending retirement. In a new series, we recount the background and subsequent investigation into the Staines Disaster of 1972 – the UK’s deadliest ever air accident.

We also analyse the rapidly growing Indian aviation market, talk EVO with ATR, and sit down with the president of Jetcraft’s commercial aviation division. Finally, we pay tribute to the late Queen Elizabeth II and her relationship with aviation.
