In aviation there is an era, that lasted for just a few short years after World War II, that has become steeped in magic. Those who remember it nod sagely and agree that we will never see its like again. Those who came later, yearn to have been there — to have lived with the sight and sound of the great piston-engined airliners that began to criss-cross the globe in the late 1940s and 1950s. Those were the days before the crushing science of revenue+passenger+kilometres times per-seat calculations directly affected operating costs — so absolutely crucial these days. The days before accountants ran airlines and there was no such thing as an airline 'industry'. The days before jets brought cramped and dehumanised air transport to the masses. The days when flying was still a most glamourous pursuit — and definately not for the likes of you and me.
The Stratocruiser story is not a straightforward one, but this history reveals every aspect of the aircraft from its evolution and design to its production and service, and includes complete details of operators and technical specifications.
