Curved Windshield
Increases Speed Of
Army Douglas A-26
Toledo, O. (U.R) When work
ers at Libbey-Owens-Ford here
talk about "wrap around" pro
duction, they re not discussing
casy-to-slip-into houscdresses.
The term refers to a method
of producing one of the largest
of airplane windshields for the
Douglas A-26. The plane was
used to knock out enemy supply
dumps and ground cmplao
ments in the European theater.
A contributing factor in the
plane's speed, company officials
said, is the curved glass wind
shield and 4.000 of the as
semblies have been turned out so
far.
Technicians explain that the
outsized windshield is vital In
eliminating "blind spots" that
would occur if a windshield
were made in sections. The prob
lem of maintaining good optical
properties was overcome when
glass was placed vertically
against special molds and allow
ed to "wrap around" the mold
with the application of carefully
controlled temperatures.
