Air Force aircraft display collections! This incredible P-80 aircraft “Piece of History” display is professionally encased in a glass display case with plush padding and a tightly sealed display case. This display case is our LARGE size and measures a perfect 8 inches tall x 6 inches wide. This incredibly rare and very historic piece of aviation history is an original U. Army Air Forces (USAAF) mission-flown P-80 aircraft pilot flight control panel. The P-80 was the first jet used operationally by the United States Army Air Forces during WWII. It represented a significant technological leap in U. Aviation history, marking the transition from propeller-driven aircraft to jet-powered flight. The P-80 was introduced late in WWII, with its first operational flights in 1945. Although it saw limited action, the P-80 laid the groundwork for the U. Air Force jets that would follow. This would make an amazing addition to any U. Air Force or Aviation collection.
