The Lockheed Model 10 Electra was Lockheed’s first all-metal, twin-engine airliner and a pivotal 1930s transport design. Its twin-tail monoplane, retractable landing gear, and adaptable cabin served airlines, private operators, and military users; the family is also inseparable from Amelia Earhart’s 10E and the design’s place in the public history of long-distance flight.
