Airbus aircraft books - history, types and construction

A-400M Atlas: in service with air forces around the world (Duke Hawkins)

This book focuses on Europe's newest military transport aircraft, the Airbus A-400M Atlas. Designed to replace the C-130 Hercules and the C-160 Transall, the A-400M is notably larger than both.

The book offers a comprehensive look at the aircraft, covering details from the fuselage, wings, and tail to the landing gear, engines, and propellers. It includes numerous "walkaround" photos that show the aircraft from different angles, as well as action shots of the A-400M in use. A special section is dedicated to the cockpit, and another chapter explores the aircraft's maintenance procedures.

Part of the "Aircraft in Detail" series, this volume (No. 19) is the result of collaboration between pilots, aircraft technicians, and model builders. It features high-quality colour photographs, many of which have never been published before.
