Evolution of the Airliner by Ray Whitford
Commercial air travel has come a long way since the first purpose-built airliners took to the sky soon after the First World War. Countless innovations have enabled aircraft to fly higher, faster and more efficiently, and flights have become more comfortable and cheaper.

He won the Rolls-Royce Award for Best Propulsion Submission in the Royal Aeronautical Society's 1997 'Aerospace Journalist of the Year Awards' and a similar prize in 2005 for Best Technology Submission.
