Sinopsis
One of the most elegantly designed airliners to ever grace the skies was the Lockheed Constellation. This book charts the propliner's design and development from prewar proposals to the sophisticated Starliners of the 1950s. Operational use and airlines that flew the "Connie" are detailed, as are several military variants that developed early in the Cold War. A technical "walk-around" and descriptions of the differences between variants are included, and the volume concludes with a look at the surviving aircraft.

"The Lockheed Constellation ("Connie") is a propeller-driven, four-engined airliner built by Lockheed Corporation starting in 1943. The Constellation series was the first civil airliner family to enter widespread use equipped with a pressurized cabin, enabling it to fly well above most bad weather, thus significantly improving the general safety and ease of commercial passenger air travel. Several different models of the Constellation series were produced, although they all featured the distinctive triple-tail and dolphin-shaped fuselage. Most were powered by four 18-cylinder Wright R-3350 Duplex-Cyclones. In total, 856 were produced between 1943 and 1958 at Lockheed's plant in Burbank, California, and used as both a civil airliner and as a military and civilian cargo transport." (from Wikipedia).
