CW-21 Interceptor

2023 || Paperback || Edwin Hoogschagen || Lanasta

The CW-21 was designed during the late 1930s.

The Legendary Douglas DC-3

A Pictorial Tribute

2022 || Hardcover || Michael S. Prophet || Lanasta

The DC-3 revolutionized air travel to an extent only surpassed by the advent of the jet aircraft. What made the DC-3 particularly special was the degree of safety it provided. Thanks to the DC-3 and its reputation for strength and reliability, in 1937 air travel insurance finally became available for the general public.

Eight decades after its first debut, the DC-3 is still flying, a tribute to the solidity of its brilliant design, and it will likely continue to fly for a long time.
