Take to the skies with this fun, visual miscellany for children who love anything aircraft related! Each double-page spread features a different group of aircraft to explore, such as helpful helicopters, record-breaking planes and soaring spacecraft. Discover some of the more surprising things to have flown - including flying cars and jet packs. Readers can also learn how planes fly, and pretend to be a pilot as they look at a cockpit from a pilot's eye view.
