Lockheed JetStar Wallpapers

Lockheed JetStar aircraft, Megawallpapers: The Lockheed L-1329 JetStar is a business jet produced in the 1960s and 1970s. It is distinguishable from other small jets by its four engines, mounted on the rear of the fuselage in a similar layout to the Vickers VC-10 airliner, and the "slipper"-style fuel tanks fixed to the wings. A number of JetStars were also produced for the United States Air Force, and were known by the Air Force designation C-140. The JetStar fleet occasionally served as Air Force One during the 1970s and 1980s. Several other countries, such as Germany and Canada, have used military JetStars as transports for their head of government and other VIPs. [br]Noise regulations in the United States led to the retirement of most JetStars, although some are still flying in various roles. [br]A JetStar appeared in the James Bond film Goldfinger.
