America’s Gem: "75 Years of the Lockheed Martin Skunk Works"

Drawing from his book 75 Years of the Lockheed Martin Skunk Works, Jim Goodall takes us from the beginning of the Skunk Works's first project (XP-80 Shooting Star) and follows the program through prototype build-up, first flight and, if they reached the frontline, operational service. What sets this presentation and book apart are the photos of the developmental phases of unclassified projects by Skunk Works, featuring the work of lead engineer Kelly Johnson and his team and successors, with more attention to programs that went into production and merit more detailed coverage, such as the P-80/F94/T-33 family, C-130 family and, of course, the A-12 and SR-71. Time: 2:00 - 3:30 p.m., virtually Cost: $20 To register: www.coldwar.org
