Yanks Air Museum at Chino Airport to Fly Rare Lockheed Electra on August 16.

Saturday, Aug 16 9:00a

Yanks Air Museum

Chino, CA

Yanks Air Museum will fly this rare 1930’s-era glistening, low wing, monoplane, soaring over Chino, CA on the Museum’s Heritage Flight. Similar to Amelia Earhart's airplane, this was the first twin engine aircraft built by Lockheed and the first all metal airplane ever produced. The C-40 (model 12-A) was the fastest transport airplane in the field. It out-climbed and out-flew any other twin. Come get a close up look at history and discover an amazing airplane.
