Strana 16 - Boeing Flying Fortresses* do their appointed work. Boeing engineers, designers and research men have made it possible for guns to fire, bombs to fall, motors to run, propellers to drive and men to work in regions of empty silence and cold where even birds are left behind and only stars disturb the ghostly reaches of the sky. The triumph of the airplane over altitude represents years of research by Boeing flight engineers working six, seven, and more miles above the earth. No other group has spent...
Strana 16 - ... reproduce at one time the intense cold and the extreme low-pressure conditions of the stratosphere. In this experimental chamber — the first of its kind in aviation research — Boeing engineers daily explore new ways by which men will win new kinds of freedom. The conquest of cold is only one of the many different projects that form a constant part of the Boeing engineering schedule.

A far larger proportion fell in built-up areas or hit the actual target. The United States daylight bombing...
