Lockheed Air Express

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Lockheed Air Express.

The Lockheed Air Express was the second aircraft design created by the Lockheed Aircraft Company after its founding in 1927; the type first flew in April 1928. The Air Express was based around the original fuselage of the Vega, but the wing was raised to a parasol configuration above the fuselage and the cockpit was moved behind the wing. The design was a commercial success for the company although only seven were built.

No Air Expresses have survived to the present day.
