LOCKHEED P-38
LIGHTNING
![]()
The unusual configuration of the P-38 resulted from the
original US Army specification for a high-performance
fighter that demanded a speed, rate of climb and range
that could not be met by a conventional single-engined
aircraft. The first P-38 flew in 1939 but development
problems meant the aircraft did not enter large scale
service until 1942, over 10,000 eventually being built.This CD contains three flight manuals for the Lockheed
P-38 Lightning and covers all the main production
variants. The CD has been scanned from the original
flight manuals and retains any colour pages.
