A. Patterson, president of Unit ed Air Lines, wno said the com pany will spend approximately 5175,000,000 -for 30 Douglas DC-8s and spare parts. It is the largest jet airliner order yet placed with any single aircrait manuiaciuiei. Deliver. of the 113 to 140 pas senger aircraft will begin in May, 1959 and United will Inaugurate Jet service between principal cities on its 13,250-mile system by Novem ber, 1!)59, Mr. Patterson said. 1 The swept-wing airliners, de- clgned for transcontinental and Ha waiian service, are the third ma jor addition announced for United's present fleet of 177 plants. Orders placed with the Douglas Aircraft Company last fall and in April of this year call for delivery of five DC-6AS. 17 DC-7S and 21 DC6BS. These piston-engine planes, costing $84,500.000i will accommodate Unit ed'C expanding operations until the Jets arrive. Patterson said. The DC-8 will-be powered by four Pratt & Whitney Jt57 engines, each capable of more than 10,000 pounds qt -thrust. (A pouna 01 mrust is iqtial to one horsepower t"i37; miles an hour.l A thrust-reversing mechanism will shorten lanatng distances and serve as an addi tional runway brake. Tile J-57 :engine, In production since 1953. has seen extensive serv ice on various types of military planes. One J-57 engine costs $145, 000. United has worked with both the aircraft and engine manufacturers toward accomplishing a substantial reduction of external noise under that of the present-type jet engine, Patterson said. The phenomenal speed of the TJouelas DC-8 will enable travelers to breakfast in New York, take off at fl a.m. (EST), land in Los An geles at 11:45 a.m. (PSTi, leave an hour later for Honolulu and arrive there at 4:25 p m. (HST). Flight, at cruising speeds ranging from 500 to 575 miles an hour and at altitudes of 30,000 to 40.000 feet, will be smooth, -quiet and vibra tionless. ' - 'f "Our decision to be the first do mestic aiiiaie to contract for Jet airliners is based -on years of en gineering study,'' Patterson said. Our choice ol the DC-8 was made after meticulous inspection of avail able types. - We are confident that today's move will provide the fast est, most' 'comfortable, most de pendable ah; service ever con ceived."
