Interior view of the Beech AT-10 Wichita cockpit at the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force World War II Gallery. Beech Aircraft designed the advanced, multi-engine trainer that could be easily manufactured on a large scale. To conserve scarce metals needed for combat aircraft, Beech built the airframe out of plywood with only the engine cowlings and cockpit enclosure constructed of aluminum.
