The first widely used commercial jet, the Boeing 707, brought America
into the 'Jet Age' of the late 1950s and created the template for
worldwide air travel today. The 707 remained in production until late
1978, by which time it was too small to handle the increased passenger
densities on many routes, and it was retired to make way for more-modern
jetliner types. This book provides a fascinating portfolio of images
depicting a wide range of Boeing 707 variants in service around the
world, in passenger, cargo and military use, showcasing many of the
aircraft's diverse and colorful liveries.
