About Charles Kennedy
All of us have a different story of how we came to be involved in aviation professionally or as a simple hobby. For some you are just starting this journey for others it has been a life s quest. Being involved doesnt mean you have to be a licensed pilot or to even fly at all. There are different levels of participation and they all matter. I was born this way; I have had my eyes in the sky for as long as I can remember. It always fascinated me to watch plane flies every time. If I remember right my first plane ride was a CAAC Trident my first aircraft model was a Libyan Arab B727 in its golden livery by Herpa Wings and my first love was the United Airlines B747 in the fabulous Saul Bass livery. My passion of aviation keeps me motivated excited enchanted and going places on my aviation journeys. The book series is born as a result of that passion and devotion to my aviation hobby in 2008. has some of the best photos and stories today in commercial aviation. I have been extremely fortunate to team up with Charles Kennedy a talented aviation writer to bring these exciting stories and aviation histories to you.
