Planes En Route to France Months Ahead of Time
Washington Web. 20 The first American built battle planes are en route to France nearly five months ahead of the original schedule. Secretary Baker says the first shipment, though small, marks the completion of many production hurdles. Engine production has begun on a limited basis and will expand to peak in a few weeks. Only twelve cylinder engines are being made as upgrades favor high power units. The secretary cautions against exaggeration and notes the Western Front has not seen more than 1,500 planes at once during three years of war. A vast manpower effort is required, with 46 ground personnel per plane and a need for 115,000 workers for the current maximum of 2,500 planes. Each plane needs two replacement aircraft, plus a training plane per pilot, and a spare engine. The key remaining challenge is securing thousands of skilled mechanics and specialists to maintain planes. The life of a plane is about two months and engines require overhaul after 75 hours. American battle planes overseas will boost volunteer skilled labor, with better communication with allied nations. Anverial battle planes were not due to France under the original schedule until July.
