LANGLEY FIELD, Virginia FRENCH NIEUPORT PLANE, TYPE 17, WITH CAPT. J.C. BARTOLF AND LT. E. LeMAITRE

Hangar at Langley field - Public domain portrait photograph

Production. Lockheed P-38 pursuit planes. Finishing wings for Lockheed P-38 pursuit planes in a large Western aircraft plant. The wings, which had been accurately assembled in jigs, are added to the plane bodies as they travel down the final assembly line where engines, landing gear, controls and other equipment are also installed

Production. Milling machines and machine castings. It's all a matter of relative angles and turning speeds. Properly set, this gear-cutting machine tool will produce any kind of beveled, spur, hypoid or other kind of gear. The small hypoid bevel gear shown partially cut in the center of the picture will soon become part of another machine tool after it has been heat-treated, ground, lapped and thoroughly tested and checked

YB-17 bombardment squadron, Langley Field, Virginia. Top-notch performance of our big bombers is made a matter of certainty by the ground crews of the Air Force. A soldier-mechanic at Langley Field, Virginia makes an engine adjustment on a mighty YB-17 bomber under the critical eye of a sergeant

Production. B-17 heavy bomber. Parts for a new B-17F (Flying Fortress) bomber are cut on a routing machine in the Boeing plant in Seattle. The Flying Fortress, a four-engine heavy bomber capable of flying high altitudes, has performed with great credit in the South Pacific, over Germany and elsewhere. It is a four-engine heavy bomber capable of flying at high altitudes
