Malcolm Loughead (* 1887 in Niles, Kalifornien; † 1958) war ein US-amerikanischer Erfinder und Flugpionier. Zusammen mit seinem Bruder Allan Haines Loughead gründete er am 19. Dezember 1912 die Alco Hydro-Aeroplane Company, die Wasserflugzeuge herstellte. 1916 wurde von den Brüdern eine kleine Flugzeugfabrik (Loughead Aircraft Manufacturing Company) in Santa Barbara eröffnet. Während sich Malcolm der Luftfahrt abwandte, gründete sein Bruder Allan im Jahre 1926 die Firma Lockheed Aircraft Company, der Ursprung des heutigen US-amerikanischen Luft- und Raumfahrtunternehmens in Burbank. Der Name Loughead wurde im Februar 1934 nach der Aussprache in Lockheed geändert.[1][2][3]
