New Transports Show 4000 Horsepower Rise In Flight Power
American aviation has come of age as transport planes grow fourfold in size over a decade and are projected to nearly double again in the next two years. By 1938 a 54,000-pound 40 passenger craft looms, and coast to coast service has shrunk from 36 hours to under 16 hours with faster, stronger machines. The gyro-pilot, wing design, aluminum alloys, and two way radio have cut travel times between major cities to under two hours in some routes, marking a dramatic shift from the 1918 fabric-covered internals to modern, high speed transports.
