As environmental concerns increasingly dominate public
consciousness, businesses are called upon to incorporate green
methods and processes into their operations strategy. The aviation
industry is no exception and is responsible for taking more actions
to reduce the negative environmental impact. Designing and
implementing a top-down strategy conscious of environmental impact
is a monumental challenge. Only with a full understanding of the
scientific and logistical hurdles can a green approach to airline
operations succeed. Airline Green Operations Strategies: Emerging
Research and Opportunities is an essential publication that
examines methods of managing and limiting harmful waste and
emissions from airlines and supports the adoption of the most
effective green operation strategies, policies, and regulations by
airlines. Highlighting a broad range of topics including greenhouse
gases, noise management, and competitive priorities, this book is
ideally designed for executives, manufacturers, environmentalists,
policymakers, academicians, researchers, and students.

Aircraft of World War II contains 300 of the most important and
influential military aircraft in service between 1939 and 1945.
From Allied fighters to Axis bombers, from biplanes to flying
boats, each of the aircraft featured is presented with a full
colour profile artwork, alongside technical specifications and text
explaining the aircraft’s development and service history.
Including some of the most famous and beautiful aircraft of the
twentieth century, Aircraft of World War II is a pocket-sized
reference guide that will appeal to any reader interested in
military technology, World War II and aviation.
Fighting over the beaches of Dunkirk and in the Battle of Britain,
guarding the night skies during the perilous months of the Blitz,
pioneering electronic countermeasures, and serving air-sea rescue
roles all around our coasts, the Boulton Paul Defiant played a
vital part through most of the Second World War, finishing it in
the important target-tug role. The Defiant is rightly considered
Wolverhampton's highest profile contribution to the war, and the
most important product of Boulton Paul Aircraft. This book
celebrates the contribution of the Defiant to the war in over 200
illustrations, most from Boulton Paul's own archives, and many
never published before. It exposes some of the false myths attached
to an aircraft held in great affection by many of its crews.
