Lost and Found

Lost Airline Liveries picks up where Faded Glory left off. THis book will appeal to aviation enthusiasts looking for pictures of airliners in schemes of the 1980s and early 1990s. What makes this book worthwhile is that the author has included numerous pictures of small and obscure airlines, such as Air Haiti, Air One, Interconair, and Interestatal. I also like the picture of the Rich International C-46. Also noteworthy is that practically all of the airlines depicted have either folded or were merged with larger carriers; Pan Am gets special treatment here.Most of the pictures are of decent quality, though a few do spread onto two pages. For each picture, Mr. Morton also includes an annotation of the history of the airline, though only basic information on the aircraft itself. Also missing is a table of contents or index; if you want to look up a particular airline or plane, you are on your own.All in all, as an airliner buff, I enjoy looking at the pictures and find the book to be highly worthwhile.
