洛克希德飞机公司成立于 1912 年，是二战时期领先的飞机制造商，在整个战争期间，该公司生产的一架飞机--P-38 “闪电”。洛克希德的总工程师霍尔-L-希伯德在序言中阐述了本书的意图： “以草图的形式为设计者提供创意集锦，激发他们的创造力和创造性思维"。模型制作者、老式飞机爱好者以及任何对这一领域感兴趣的创意人士都会发现这本书是一个宝贵的资源。

This treasure trove of cutaway views of 1940s aircraft features art from the top magazines of the era: Aeroplane, Flight, Aviation, L'Aeronautique, and others. The majority of the illustrations are American models, described with extensive notes and explanations. Select British and German planes are featured as well. The two-part treatment begins with a look at individual components: wings, empennage, controls, fuselage, landing gear, interior elements, and armament. The second part focuses on complete aircraft, depicting military and commercial single-, twin-, and multi-engine planes.

Formed in 1912, Lockheed Aircraft Corporation was a leading WWII aircraft manufacturer and was responsible for the only plane in production throughout the entire war, the P-38 Lightning. Lockheed's Chief Engineer, Hall L. Hibbard, states the book's intention in the Preface: "to give the designer a collection of ideas, in sketch form, that will stimulate his own creative and inventive mind." Model builders, vintage aircraft enthusiasts, and any creative person with an interest in the field will find this volume a valuable resource.
