Description

Florida—land of perpetual sunshine, open spaces, and unending blue skies best possible for flying. Blimps, hot air balloons, bi-wings, jets, space shuttles-you name it: if you’ll fly it, you’ll fly it here, and plenty of aviators have. From the launch of Amelia Earhart’s ultimate flight to the worlds first scheduled airplane flight, essential events in aviation have taken place in Florida.

Full of beautiful color paintings by artist William Trotter, this book offers the definitive history of aviation in Florida—from the open-cockpit bi-wing planes utilized by the barnstormers of the 1920s to the jumbo jets and space shuttles of these days.
