Air France is one of the world's great airlines. It is a French institution with its own unique style, part of the fabric of the country as well as being the national flag carrier. This history of Air France is published in the 75th anniversary year of its foundation, and it is as much a slice of French social history as it is an aviation title. Following the takeover by Air France of KLM in 2004, the combined company is the largest airline in the world in terms of operating revenue and the largest in Europe in terms of passenger mileage.
Over the years, Air France has flown a considerable variety of aircraft, including the De Havilland Comet, the Vickers Viscount, and the Sud Aviation Caravelle, but, as with British Airways, the airline will always be associated with the Concorde and the great age of supersonic transatlantic flying. This book provides a full history of the airline, the development of its aircraft, and the routes it operates. It also explores the social aspects of the airline.
This book also covers the many airlines that were associates of Air France in recent years and the diverse aircraft types and airlines that provide the current national and sometimes international feeds to Air France's main hubs at Paris Charles de Gaulle, Orly, and Lyons.
