Airbus A300
First flown in 1972, Airbus medium-range A300 has enjoyed a production run of more than 400 units, most of which are still in service throughout the world. In fact, the European consortiums widebody remains in limited production nearly three decades later. This colour history of the prolific jetliner covers an alphabet soup of A300 variants photographed in a variety of liveries from around the globe.
Airbus Industrie
An example of European co-operation, Airbus Industrie has destroyed the old American monopoly in commercial airliner production, taking about a third of all new orders and creating considerable US-EU friction.
Airbus
By welding the European aerospace industry into a cohesive force and directing the pace of technological change in civil air transport, Airbus Industrie has successfully challenged the competition and now ranks as one of the world's largest commercial jetliner manufacturers. Airbus traces the history of Airbus Industrie's rise to greatness, describing the consortium's head-to-head match with Boeing, and how it is revolutionizing the airliner industry. Each Airbus model is covered in detail.
Airbus Industrie
This book examines an event that never happened - a trade war between the US and the EC in respect of the civil aircraft builder, Airbus Industrie. By understanding this trade dispute, the author casts light on broader issues of international cooperation by focusing on the bilateral trade negotiations that took place between 1979 and 1992. He considers the role played by aerospace firms, the GATT and the transatlantic alliance in shaping this cooperative outcome.

Airbus A380
“A great addition to the highly popular Flight Craft Series. This book reviews the history of . . . an iconic and important aircraft in civil aviation.” —Firetrench On April 27 2005, an aircraft under the power of six massive Rolls-Royce Trent 900 turbofan engines was making its first flight, and it was making history. For this was the Airbus A380, the largest passenger aircraft in the world. With air traffic continuing to double every fifteen years, the A380 was designed by Airbus Industrie to meet the needs of the passengers and airports, while also delivering the level of efficiency necessary to protect the environment for future generations. The design incorporated two full-length ...

How Europe Won Back Its Place In The Skies; The history of Airbus Industrie, the builders of the Airbus family of airliners, is an extraordinary saga involving diplomatic dramas, billion-dollar gambles in high technology and a life-and-death struggle between the European planemakers and the giants of the American aerospace industry. Airbus began in 1967 with a Franco-German-British agreement to build a twin-engined, wide-bodied airliner, the plane that eventually became the Airbus A300. For the Germans, and especially for the French, the venture was a calculated response to Le Defi Americain, the threat of American economic domination, and it was largely their faith and determination which kept the venture going through its first eight years, when just 38 planes were sold, mainly to Air France. The British attitude, on the other hand, was distinctly equivocal, and the ink was barely dry on the agreement before Harold Wilson's government decided to back out and Rolls Royce took the fatal decision to back Lockheed's Tristar in preference to the Airbus. Happily for the British industry, however, Hawker Siddeley, with financial support from the Germans, kept a foot in the door and Brit
Airbus A300/310
By producing the A300--the first twin-jet, wide-body airliner in the world--the European Airbus consortium succeeded in joining the league of leading aircraft makers. The path was both rocky and exciting. Filled with detailed text, including historical, technological, and flight information, as well as colorful photos, this volume provides a fascinating insight into the history of commercial aviation. The first aircraft designed, built, and sold by Airbus, the A300 airliner debuted in 1974 with Air France and was in constant service throughout the world. Among the many past and present airlines flying the A300/310 are Air Hong Kong, Air France, Air India, American, China Airlines, Eastern, EgyptAir, FedEx, Finnair, Iberia, Korean Air, Pan Am, SAS, UPS, and many others. Though it is no longer produced, examples of the aircraft still fly today.
