FS98/CFS Lockheed L-10 Electra LAN-CHILE Air Lines. The Lockheed L-18 Electra was an old chilean liner of the World War II era. The beginning of the World War II in Europe, renders difficult the arrival of spare parts from Germany for the Ju 86z LAN fleet. Due to such facts, LAN begin the negotiations to acquire new planes Lockheed Electra A-10, that with so much success was manufacturing the Lockheed Aircraft Corporation of the United States. Around the beginning of 1941, were received the first three Lockheed Electra. The others three Electra arrived on 26 August, completing a fleet of six. The Lockheed Electra shared his duties with the Potez, Fairchild, Lodestar, DC-3 and Martin 202, on LAN service on that ages. Propelled by two WASP JR.B of 450 HP engines, they could transport 10 passengers at 280 Km/h of cruise speed, with 04:10 hours of flight autonomy, with maximum load. This was the first plane of LAN equipped with ADF (Automatic Direction Finder), modern and valuable help that was permitting to establish in automatic way the position of the aircraft with respect to land radio stations. As in those years yet wasn't existing in Chile the current NDB (Non Direccional Beacon) net, the pilots were using the broadcasting radio stations to be located, using the Electra's ADF. The last three Lockheed Electra were sold to CINTA Airlines in 1952, ending them service on LAN CHILE, and being replaced by the De Havilland Dove.
