The Douglas DC-6/7 series, along with the Lockheed Constellation, played a major role in the post-World War II period in reducing the time spent traveling among world population centers. The potential realized by these aircraft in moving goods and people in an ever increasing market signalled an era in aviation technology that spurred other disciplines: electronic communication, banking and other forms of transportation increased levels of service. Airline transportation was the driving factor.
Author Gann takes a look into the design philosophy as well as the technical aspects of the aircraft, and provides a detailed look into the background of the company that built it. Includes engineering, drawings, production line photos, performance figures, power plant details, and close-ups of aircraft structures. Contains a survey of preceeding Douglas aircraft, factory serial numbers of all delivered aircraft, listings of original customers, varied usage, specifications, records and awards, and selling prices. The photos in this edition are black and white.
