Without doubt, the essential, THE one and only guide for the civil
aviation enthusiast

abc CIVIL AIRCRAFT MARKINGS 2003
Alan J. Wright

The new edition of Civil Aircraft Markings has been fully revised to
include the huge number of changes that have affected registrations
of civil aircraft in Britain over the past 12 months. Fully
comprehensive, the book also includes microlights, toy balloons,
radio frequencies, airline flight codes and much else. Apart from
featuring those civil aircraft registered in Britain, the book also
includes the registrations of all civil airliners likely to be seen
at British airports.
During the past 12 months, since the publication of the last edition,
the world has witnessed considerable changes in the world of civil
aviation. Inevitably many of the changes are the consequence of the
terrorist attacks of 11 September, with many of the world's major
carriers suffering dramatic losses both financially and in terms of
passenger numbers, with a consequent trimming of services. On the
other hand, the period has continued to see the phenomenal growth in
Europe of budget airlines, with both Ryanair and Easyjet continuing
to expand rapidly, with the latter increasing its market share
through the acquisition of the former British Airways subsidiary Go.
Despite the financial problems of many of the world's airlines, new
aircraft continue to be delivered and new models are in development.
All these changes and numerous more are recorded in the 2003 edition
of Civil Aircraft Markings.
