Product Info


The Lockheed L-1329 Jetstar is a small business jet with four jet engines, which was created by the ingenious aircraft designer Kelly Johnson in 1957, and went into production in 1960. From the moment it emerged, the plane was positioned by its developers as a commercial business jet, however soon after it flew, the military became interested in it, as the Air Force needed (although only a few) small jet planes to undertake various tasks for the Transportation Command.

One of the six VC-140Bs was, undoubtedly, the best known of any Lockheed Jetstar to be built. Lyndon Johnson, Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan were its VIP passengers from 1963 onwards. Every time when the President of the country sat down aboard VC-140B, for all air traffic controllers this plane received the radio call sign of "Air Force One".
The VC-140B remained in service until 1989. After their long service one of them, which had served U.S. Presidents most often, was solemnly transferred from Andrews Air Force Base to the National Museum of the US Air Force at Wright-Patterson AFB in Dayton, Ohio.
