Pages : 149
Book Description
The book is about the early P2Yand PBY designs that involve the Consolidate Aircraft Factory during the late years of 1920s. Consolidated aircraft was the first designed under the chief aero-engineer, Isaac Mackin Laddon. He joined the Consolidated Company in 1927. The Consolidated founder was Reuben H. Fleet who was a primary trainer-built company from the US Navy and US Army Aircraft. He wanted to extend his business to a multi-engine aircraft with designer Igor Sikorsky. The company plant was originally located in Buffalo, New York, but later moved their plant to San Diego, California. They both headed a team of engineers to design a long-range flying boat under the contract to the Boeing Company which later serviced the US Navy during World War II. Consolidated Company was very influential in the PBY aircraft design in saving many down pilots during the war.

Pages : 130
Book Description
The United States Naval Air Station at Quonset Point, Rhode Island, originally built as a Neutrality Patrol seaplane base, became a unique and fundamental asset to our nation's armed forces. In World War II, more than half of all U-boats sunk by U.S. aviation were destroyed by Quonset-trained shore and carrier-based squadrons. In the years following World War II, Quonset Point Naval Air Station remained a premier industrial naval air station, sending squadrons or overhauling equipment for use in the Korean, Vietnam, and Cold War conflicts. For 34 years and through four wars, the Quonset Point Naval Air Station stood proud and tall on behalf of the U.S. military. This second volume of Quonset Point images uncovers nearly 200 more scenes of the installation's achievements and activities during the entire period of its service.
