Doing a project involving Identity, Design and culture or Airlines...especially identity systems for airlines.
Having trouble finding books on the subject...I have a handful, just wondering if anyone may be familiar with any good texts on the subject or curious to know if anyone on here has done any work in that area before.

If you go down the menu to Roots Air there's a very nice case study for an airline that never flew.

Trouble finding books? You're clearly not looking hard enough Man, I was studying this back in school and found shelves and shelves of books (mostly photography) around airline culture at the library. No joke, there were tons of them, spanning decades and decades.
- I thought it would be easier considering that it used to be almost glamorous. Curious what you were working on.marychain

For instance
