This is a comprehensive reference to every type and manufacturer of business and light aircraft constructed in the Western World since World War II. This book identifies: every manufacturer of production general- aviation aircraft and the sequence of ownership changes affecting the various aircraft models and companies; every type of aircraft, including the detailed differences between every model and sub-type; the complete general-aviation panorama - from Luscombe Silvaire to Canadair Challenger, from the Chrislea Skyjeep to the Aviamilano Nibbio; the progressive development of each aircraft type with the first flight dates, prototype registrations and precise model names and designations; and the production quantities of each model that was completed. Full details of serial-number systems and batches are given, and the models built in each year by the major manufacturers. This second edition includes East European manufacturers, as well as models developed since publication of the first edition.
