 L/E of 850
S/N by the Artist & One Pilot
Image Size: 24" x 20.25"
Paper Size: 28.5" x 24.75"
Plane Type: Bell XP-59 Airacomet
Although not as sleek as the planes that would soon follow, the Bell
XP-59 entered the history books as America's first jet aircraft.
Although outclassed in performance by the top propeller driven
fighters of the day, the XP-59A was an invaluable tool for the USAAF
transition to jet power.
Personally autographed by Lt. Gen. Laurence "Bill" Craigie,
America's first military jet pilot.
