THE SUPERFORTRESS IS BORN

The author of Flying Fortress tells the story of the Boeing B-29, the fastest heavy plane with the longest flying range, and the largest ever to be placed in quantity production. Designed by more than 3,500 engineers, this plane has justified their faith in it. How it was conceived and built -- the structural problems it posed -- the men responsible for its design and production -- the role in the CBI theatre of war, -- here is enthusiastic official recording for air addicts, told in text, with diagrams and photographs.
