| Tom Finch , TX | I had clock number 001 on the 731 Jetstar program at SAGA.
We did quite a few things to the ship besides the new siamese quad installation. I developed a stick pusher and a rudder bias system for the aircraft which now had more thrust on a longer arm. Also, there were translating fairings to move away when the TRs were deployed. Underslung tank had a large abrasion keel for wheels up landings Certifying the outboard engine to run to the newer rules of 15 minutes fire at 2,000 degrees in the inboard engine was no easy thing. 06/15/2007 @ 20:53 [ref: 16845] |
| Ken Miller Marietta, GA | I had the opportunity to work on the JetStar in 1966-67. The less informed liked to compare it with Learjets (of its day)which was like comparing a Ford Pinto with a Lincoln. Went for a test flight on a customer airplane; it rolls beautifully. As the only stress analyst assigned to the JetStar program at Lockheed I did the structural certification work for the -8 upgrade. Also worked on an ill fated attempt to sell the airplane to an airline as a trainer with cockpit resembling a B-727 and requirements to certify operational speeds (gear, flap etc.)to B-727 limits. There also were studies on the possibility of using it for "Carrier on board deliver" (COD)by thr US Navy. My fun and games with the JetStar ended when I was recalled into the US Air Force (navigator)Jan 1968.

| Everett Aaron , LA | There are 4 versions of the 1329. The -6 model which you have listed, the -8 using P&W PT12-8 engines, the 731 a -6 or -8 upgraded to Garrett TFE 731 engines and the Jetstar II which Lockheed built with 731 engines.
Also the photo I uploaded is an example of a Jetstar 731. 05/24/2001 @ 23:29 [ref: 2347] |
