Communication Plan for the P-80 Shooting Star Fighter Jet Project MET AD643 Professor Leybourne/Jim Hannon Abstract Lockheed's Skunk Works project was created to build the first U.S. jet fighter that could compete with a German-developed jet during WWII. The unique nature of Skunk Works, which consisted of isolating a smaller team from the influence and policies of the main body of the organization, has become widely popular today and has been implemented by many large technology companies such as IBM, Intel, and many others. No matter how small or large the project is, it would not be successful without a solid project communication plan. The communication plan not only ensures that all of the project's stakeholders receive necessary information in a timely manner, but it also provides a framework that facilitates who will be responsible for communicating specific information at specific times throughout the project. Discussed and analyzed herein is the project communication plan for Skunk Works using available technology today and recommendations on how communications could be improved and managed throughout the life cycle of the project.

For example, Thurber uses the onomatopoeia “pocketa-pocketa” to imitate the sound of an aircraft engine in the first daydream, to imitate the sound of the anesthetizer in the second daydream—with the addition of “queep” when the machine malfunctions—and to imitate the sound of flame throwers in the fourth daydream. (Flame throwers, of course, don't go “pocketa-pocketa” but instead make a whooshing sound. But so what. “Pocketa-pocketa” is more dramatic.) In addition, Thurber uses images of complicated dials in the first and second daydreams and of a gun (Webley-Vickers 50.80) in the third and fourth
