F-80 Shooting Star Poster | Vintage Air Force Jet Print

Meet the Lockheed F-80 Shooting Star, the first operational jet fighter of the U.S. Air Force, in a bold vintage-style aviation poster. A polished silver jet banks above snow-capped mountains, a mountain lake and drifting clouds. Weathered cream lettering on deep navy gives the print the look of a classic Air Force recruiting poster.
