Lockheed's top WW2 test pilots do the check out on this very thorough pilot training video.

WWII Lockheed promotional film (1940)

This Lockheed promotional film hits the propaganda points hard, but makes up for it with the rare footage of Lockheed factory assembly lines. There is also some footage of the Wright brothers, Lindbergh and his wife, Amelia Earhart, Howard Hughes, and others.
In addition to the great factory footage, there is also an explanation of how they used test pilots to try out their newest inventions, and to set records for speed.
