Airliner World Magazine August 2022 Vorige editie

In the August 2022 edition of Airliner World, we kick-off this jam-packed issue with a retrospective look at Switzerland’s former flag carrier, Swissair. While we detail the remarkable history of this once European aviation heavyweight, we explain how Swissair went from flying high to its collapse two decades ago.

Elsewhere, we journey back to the Isle of Wight in the 1930s in our fascinating feature on the Spartan Cruiser. Meanwhile, those with more contemporary tastes will be fulfilled by our look at Europe’s ‘mini airliner’ sector, as we investigate how manufacturers of three small, but very different aircraft types are vying to remain competitive in a congested market.

We then criss-cross the globe, first to California, with a dedicated airport feature on San Bernardino, before covering more traditional topics as we head to South Africa for an in-depth profile of Airlink. It’s then from the south to the far north as we ventured to Iceland and spoke to the CEO of the country’s start-up, Niceair. We also sat down with India-based Vistara’s CEO to discuss growth strategy.
