Description
Lyn Buttifant and Chris Chatfield – Editors in conjunction with the Air-Britain News Team
This year’s edition of Airline Fleets extends to 848 pages, covering 3,118 operators in 202 countries.
This book is an easy-to-read, easy-to-use companion to our best-selling Airline Fleets Quick Reference (AFQR), covering not only the jet and turbine operators of AFQR, but piston operators (including helicopters) involved in parcel delivery, tourism charters, oil industry support, emergency medical, fire suppression and some police & surveillance activities, down to Cherokee Six and Ecureuil size.
Additional information to that in AFQR includes immediate previous identities, call-signs, special liveries, fleet numbers, leasing details and major operational bases with the relevant IATA codes. There are 44 pages of indices, including a list of operators removed since the 2023 edition with the explanation for the removal, plus IATA and ICAO operator designators cross-referenced to operator. There are also operator, nationality prefix and airline alliance indices. Most immediately useful are the additional 28 pages of jet and turbine aircraft in corporate, government and military VIP use, listed type-by-type, plus 3 pages at the end of the book for notes.
Overall, information including known Russian re-registrations is included up to 28th February 2024.
