Opis produktu

The third in Guy HalfordMacLeods series on the history of independent airlines in Britain after the Second World War battling against everchanging government policies this wellorganised book takes us from Harold Wilsons first administration through the Thatcher years to the surprising acceptance of Open Skies within the European Community. Britains Airlines focuses on the airlines their managers the aircraft they flew and the conditions they contended with for survival. Guy HalfordMacLeod explains how the airlines made and remade themselves ducking and diving in a slippery and difficult ring: and records the exploits of some wellknown heavyweights Freddie Laker Lord King and Richard Branson. There are unfamiliar slants on the stories of the time and this readable book offers both structure and expert analysis of the complex issues which faced the airlines and their regulators.Britains airlines Vol 3p>span style=fontfamily: Microsoft Sans Serif: fontsize: 10pt>span style=fontfamily: Verdana>span style=fontfamily: : fontsize: 10pt>/p>div>span style=fontfamily: Verdana: fontsize: 10pt>The third in this series on the history of British airlines since the Second World War this volume starts with the return of Harold Wilson in 1964 and continues through the Thatcher years to deregulation in 1992.
