●内容简介——

这座1940年代飞机剖面图的宝库中的艺术作品来自那个时代的杂志。Aeroplane, Flight, Aviation, L'Aeronautique等。大多数插图都是美国模型，并有大量的注释和说明。部分英国和德国的飞机也有特色。该书由两部分组成，首先介绍了各个部件：机翼、机舱盖、控制装置、机身、起落架、内部元件和武器装备。第二部分侧重于完整的飞机，描述了军用和商用的单引擎、双引擎和多引擎飞机。

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，负责生产整个战争期间的飞机，即P-38闪电。洛克希德公司的首席工程师霍尔-L-希伯德在序言中指出了本书的意图。"以草图的形式给设计者提供一个想法的集合，这将刺激他自己的创造性和创造性的头脑"。模型建造者、老式飞机爱好者以及任何对该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.
