LOCKHEED 18 LODESTAR (C-59, C-60)

$9.95

Titles: Lockheed 18 Lodestar No’s 1 and 2

Due to disappointing sales of the Lockheed 14 compared to it’s Douglas competitors, Lockheed developed the Model 18 by lengthening the fuselage by 5 feet to allow two more rows of seats. However by the time the aircraft was developed most US Airlines had committed to the Douglas DC-3 and only 142 civil models were built. The remainder of the total of 625 examples were military transports under a range of different designations, the main ones of which were the C-59 and C-60.

We offer two titles including flight manuals and maintenance manuals covering most variants of the civil and military Lockheed 18 Lodestar. The first title covers the USAAF C-59 variants and civil equivalent, and the second title covers the C-60 variant along with a manufacturer’s maintenance manual and two civil flight manuals. The flight manuals have been scanned from the original flight manuals and retain any colour pages. Each title is US$9.95.
