About this product
Product Information
In 1935, the year of the B-17 Flying Fortress' maiden flight, the USAAC already wanted to develop a potential successor. Bigger, faster, and with a much heavier bombload, the B-19 was planed to be the world's first intercontinental bomber, able to fight future air wars from American soil. After six years of development, Douglas' prototype XB-19 would be the world's largest aircraft when it finally flew in June 1941, with an all-up weight of 81 tons. While the XB-19 never flew in combat, its lengthy development taught American aero engineers many lessons about designing and building such huge aircraft, and its flight-test career as a "Flying Laboratory" significantly influenced the development of the B-36 Peacemaker, the world's first true intercontinental bomber. Based on original USAAF aircraft acceptance documents, first-hand narratives of its maiden flight, and other USAAC and Douglas Company documents, this book provides a superbly illustrated history of the XB-19 intercontinental bomber, with rare photographs and spectacular new artwork. Throughout the last century, one-off experimental aircraft and cutting-edge military prototypes have pushed the boundaries of what is possible. Authoritative and accessible, X-Planes is the series that explains the technology behind the world's most important prototype and research aircraft, their often dangerous flight-test careers, and how their successes and failures influenced frontline aircraft development. Each Book Contains: The best archive photography, Meticulously detailed original artwork, Expert history and analysis Book jacket.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!
