Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star Pilot's Flight Operating Manual by United States Air Force

Designed by Lockheed's legendary engineer Clarence Kelly Johnson, the F-80 (first designated P-80) Shooting Star was one of the world's first operational jet fighter aircraft. After it missed seeing combat in WI - four prototype aircraft were in Europe at war's end - the plane drew first blood in Korea in 1950. Variants included a photo recon version and the two-seat T-33, both of which saw heavy service in air forces around the world. Originally printed by Lockheed and the United States Air Force in the 1950s, this F-80 Flight Operating Manual taught pilots everything they needed to know before entering the cockpit. Classified Restricted, the manual was recently declassified and is here reprinted in book form. This affordable facsimile has been reformatted and color images appear in black and white. Care has been taken however to preserve the integrity of the text.
