Recently saw this on another website/discussion group so went out an purchased Jane's "Aircraft Recognition Guide' 5th edition, publisher Collins, ISBN: 978-0-00-725792-8.  Cost was  $21.95.

This is excellent reference book to carry around with you if you are into the hobby of aircraft spotting or just want to be able to see all the variety of aircraft being flown throughout the world.

Format:  528 pages, 7 1/2" X 4 3/4" in size.

Contents:  Civil Jet Airlines, Civil Prop Airlines, Civil Utility Aircraft, Business Jets & Turbo Props, Private Light Aircraft, Civil Helicopters, Combat Aircraft, Military Training Aircraft, Combat Support Aircraft, & Military Helicopters.

Each aircraft/helicopter entry has 1 page on information including:  picture of aircraft;,  black silhouette  view (front, side, top), description including short history; specifications (accommodations, cargo handling, max speed, range), dimensions, model variants, & features.
