Bomber Parts
At Ford Plnt
Company Will Produce
Large Landing Gears
In 'Educational Order'
DETROIT, June 'I.-GP)---The Ford
Motor Company expects to be turning
out massive landing gears for the
28-ton B24-D bomber planes months
before the huge plane parts plant
it is erecting near Ypsilanti, Mich.,
is ready for production.
This was disclosed today by Edsel
Ford, president of the Ford Motor
Co., when he said that work on "an
education order" already is under way.
Because the tricycle landing gear
presents one of the "tough" produc-
tion problems, he said, the Ford Com-
pany has set aside a section of its
tire building factory at the River
Rouge to get work on the so-called
"Oleos" started with a minimum of
delay.
"Within a week or 10 days," Ford
said today, "the first of the three part
strut sections of the landing gears
will be completed. While these parts
are being inspected by the Army Air
(?orps, we'll be organizing a depart-
ment in the tire plant " to produce
landing gears for five bombers a
day."
The entire production unit can be
moved to the new bomber plant later,
he added, when it is ready for occu-
pancy late this year.
Actual production at the bomber
plant probably will not be undertaken
until after next January 1, although
considerable progress is being made
in the construction work.
