Reviews
Modeling Madness, June 2005,reviewed by Scott Van Aken "When you look at the combination of interesting writing, excellent photographs, a logical presentation, and a really decent price, this is a book that you really should buy.", Internet Modeler, August 2005,reviewed by Chris Banyai-Riepl "Like other Warbird Tech titles, this book provides a careful balance between the development and construction of the C-141 and the operational record. In addition to the well written text, this book is packed with some great photos covering the entire life of the Starlifter.", Hyperscale, August 2005,reviewed by Ken Bowes "A glance through the contents highlights that there will be something to be found for everyone in this volume from origins to technical description, colors and markings to flying the aircraft. Of particular interest is the chapter entitled "What Might Have Been" which details such design proposals as an air defence missile launcher (in essence and airborne SAM system), conventional bomber carrying 54 000lbs of bombs, air to air refuelling tanker to replace the KC-130 and AEW&C platform amongst others. The eight pages of color also provide some tantalising modelling subjects including desert camouflage trials and the ghost gray trials scheme of the late 1970's reminiscent of the current day USMC KC-130. This Warbird Tech Volume is a very detailed look at the history and employment of the type, with numerous color and black and white photographs coupled with drawings useful to the modeller. It will prove a very useful volume for anyone who wishes to build a replica of the C-141, although unfortunately unless the tigers of the Far East come to our rescue some time soon, the various kits available have shortcomings in terms of age, scale or accuracy.", Modeling Madness , June 2005, reviewed by Scott Van Aken "When you look at the combination of interesting writing, excellent photographs, a logical presentation, and a really decent price, this is a book that you really should buy.", Internet Modeler , August 2005, reviewed by Chris Banyai-Riepl "Like other Warbird Tech titles, this book provides a careful balance between the development and construction of the C-141 and the operational record.

Synopsis
During World War II, the need for military transports prompted the modification of bombers with varying degrees of success, yet ships remained the means for moving armies overseas. As the Cold War verged into the early 1960s, some American military planners realized the need for rapid deployment of military assets to trouble spots around the world, since not all threats could be countered with a nuclear deterrent. Airlift would be a key, but old reliable transports like the piston-engine C-124 Globemaster II were too slow for the task.Using generally proven components, Lockheed's swept-wing C-141 confirmed for the U.S. Air Force the promise of a global airlift. With the Starlifter, cargo and troops could be airlifted intercontinentally at three-quarters the speed of sound. From the 1960s to the 21st century, C-141s have been a trusted transporter of everything from troops and helicopters to returned hostages and presidential limousines. Lockheed C-141 Starlifter includes an account of the circumstances that led to the C-141, its design and structural details, flight characteristics, and development from C-141A to C-141B, and finally to C-141C.
