Lockheed's Constellation

As a dedicated passenger airliner, the Lockheed Constellation was referred to as "Queen of the Skies." As a devoted warbird, she was called upon o serve the armed forces. Elegant, graceful, and extremely photogenic, the legendary "Connie" remains one of the most sought-after aircraft for airshow appearances. Witness these beautiful aircraft in this fine collection of color photographs depicting the planes in both civilian and military dress, as well as in U.S. and foreign markings. Piston-powered and propeller-driven, triple-tailed and shaped like a dolphin, the Constellation, Super Constellation, and Starliner series are bona fide classics.
