	NationMaster - Encyclopedia: Lockheed JetStar
		It is distinguishable from other small jets by its four engines, mounted on the rear of the fuselage in a similar layout to the Vickers VC-10 airliner, and the "slipper"-style fuel tanks fixed to the wings.
		The JetStar was equipped with an array of 28 microphones flush-mounted in the fuselage of the aircraft beneath the propellor.
		In the 1970's the JetStar was part of cooperative industry-government program that attempted to establish noise characteristics and determine the effectiveness of alternate landing approach procedures in reducing community noise levels.

		JetStar & JetStar II - Wing span 16.60m (54ft 5in), length 18.42m (60ft 5in), height 6.23m (20ft 5in).
		The four engined JetStar was initially designed as a private venture but was also selected to fulfil a US Air Force requirement for a multi engined light transport and crew trainer.
		The JetStar II differs from the earlier aircraft primarily in its four Garrett (previously AiResearch and now AlliedSignal) TFE731 turbofans with their significantly improved fuel consumption, resulting in substantial improvements in operating costs, range and lower noise levels, while more power allows a higher maximum takeoff weight.

		The Lockheed L-1329 JetStar (C-140 in USAF service) is a business jet produced from the early 1960s through the 1970s.
		The JetStar is a relatively heavy aircraft for its class, at 42,500 pounds.
		The JetStar is one of the few aircraft of its class that allowed a person to walk upright in the cabin, although to do this the aisle was sunk slightly so that the seats were raised on either side.

		Other Jetstars were not quite as lavish, some were configured for high density seating and these could carry 14 passengers and did not have the luxury of the galley and telephone.
		Therefore, Lockheed choose to use 4 Pratt and Whitney JT12A-6 engines, configured in pairs on the rear of the fuselage, similar to the Caravelle Airliner.

		A C-140 JetStar was flown by NASA's Dryden Flight Research Center from 1964 to 1989 on a variety of of projects applicable to civilian aircraft.
		Dryden, in co-operation with the Lewis Research Center, used the JetStar to investigate the acoustic characteristics of a series of subscale advanced design propellors in the early eighties.
		In 1985, the JetStar's wings were modified with suction and spray devices in a laminar (smooth) air flow program to study ways of improving the flow of air over the wings of airliners.

		Lockheed turned to Pratt & Whitney Aircraft Engines about replacing the two French-built Orpheus engines on the original design with four Pratt engines and the plane was re-engineered to its current design, adding slipper tanks on the wings for extra fuel and range.
		Lockheed estimates that half of the planes today are used by people who still do not trust two-engine aircraft — even the likes of the ultra-modern and state-of-the-art Gulfstreams.
		This Jetstar returned to the United States in October 1987 when it was sent to serve with the 375th Aeromedical Airlift Wing and the 1467th Facilities Checking Squadron stationed at Scott AFB, Illinois.

	JetStar owners fear life-limit changes could ground fleet -03/04/2007-Washington DC-Flight International (Site not responding. Last check: )
		Owners and operators of the four-engined Lockheed JetStar business jet are accusing aerospace giant Lockheed Martin, the certificate holder, of attempting to ground the fleet by instituting near-term life limits on key parts, a suggestion the company vehemently denies.
		Lockheed has asked the US Federal Aviation Administration to codify its operator maintenance reports and service bulletins covering the problems into the aircraft's maintenance manuals, a process that does not require public input.
		In response, Lockheed says the company "in the near future" will release sections of a propriety report that it submitted to the FAA to justify the need for setting life limits for the parts.

		A Lockheed JetStar wing was purchased in April 1999 for research purposes.
		During the 1999-2000 test season, full-scale testing with the JetStar wing was conducted in natural and simulated precipitation conditions at NRC’s CEF in Ottawa and at the central deicing facility at Dorval Airport in Montreal.
		During the hot water deicing trials with the JetStar wing in 1999-2000, it was found that the measured times for the water to refreeze were inferior to those measured in previous years during full-scale trials on other aircraft.

		The Lockheed L.1329 JetStar is, I believe, unique amongst the corporate jets as it has a "flying" tail.
		The JetStar 6/8 is identified by the position of the wing tanks located 1/2 over and 1/2 under the wing.
		Similar to the JetStar 731, but the addition of an (air intake ?) at the root of the tail on top of the fuselage makes this last model of the JetStar easily identifyable.

		Lockheed Martin has recommended to the FAA that the agency upgrade to Airworthiness Directives a series of service bulletins developed over the past 18 months for the L-329 JetStar, one of the first U.S. business jets, to ensure compliance.
		JetStar operators AIN spoke with are eager to determine the airworthiness of their aircraft.
		Lockheed post-production support manager Herb O’Connell said that is the company’s first priority as well, adding, “While we’re concerned about parts prices, our most important concern is safety [of the JetStar fleet].” O’Connell said the company does not “feel comfortable” increasing the frequency of parts inspections.

		Production of the original JetStar ended in 1973; however, an improved version known as the JetStar II, powered with four Garrett TFE 731 turbofan engines of 3700 pounds thrust each, was offered by Lockheed in 1976.
		Wing of the JetStar is characterized by a 30° sweepback angle, an aspect ratio of 5.3, and airfoil section thickness ratios that vary from 12 percent at the root to 9 percent at the tip.
		As in the case of the JetStar, part of' the fuel load of the Gates Learjet 24B is carried in external fuel tanks; the tanks on the Gates LearJet, however, are located at the wingtip instead of' the midspan position employed on the JetStar.
