LOCKHEED 12 ELECTRA JUNIOR (C-40)

$9.95

Title: Lockheed 12 Electra Junior (C-40)

The Lockheed 12 Electra Junior first flew in 1936 and was developed from the earlier, larger Model 10 Electra, which itself was developed to compete with the Douglas DC-2 and Boeing 247. Only 130 examples were built as Lockheed concentrated on more important military contracts.

This title contains three manuals for civil and military variants of the Lockheed model 12 along with a nice manufacturer’s brochure. The files have been scanned from the original flight manuals and retain any colour pages.
