  • Lockheed Aircraft Since 1913
    i FOREWORD The post-WWI boom in the U n i t e d S t a t e s p r o d u c e d the Roaring Twenties, jazz, prohibition, and art deco design. Babe Ruth was regularly hitting home runs, and the movie industry was experimenting with talkies. And then Lindbergh’s sensational solo flight across the Atlantic sparked an explosion of a v i a t i o n d e v e l o p m e n t s . Lockheed’s Vega led the way. The Vega’s design and power encouraged people in the slambang days of the early ‘30s to seek the thrills and romance that lay beyond the horizon. Her feats and record-breaking accomplishments kept the Lockheed name ablaze in headlines, and the Vega earned respect and admiration from people in all walks of life. With a long, smooth fuselage and curvaceous strut-free wing, the Lockheed Vega burst onto the scene where box-kite biplanes and brutish tri-motors performed. A glamour-girl, she stole the spotlight and the Lockheed Vega became a name symbolic of the utmost in speed to airman and schoolboy alike. The name Lockheed flashed back and forth across the continent and over the top of the world. The slogan “Look for Lockheed for Leadership” rang true, but was soon replaced when ’'It takes a Lockheed to beat a Lockheed” became an accepted fact. ii CHAPTER∏ 1 A LONG CLIMB TO SUCCESS Soon after the Wright Brothers flight in 1903 a remarkable single mother, Flora Loughead, moved her two young sons, Allan and Malcolm, from San Francisco to a small fruit farm north of Oakland, California.
