United Airlines Contracts For Thirty
Douglas DC-8s At $ 1 75,000,000 Cost
Toe first contrast order by a do
. mestic airline for jet airliners that
will revolutionize air travel in this
country has been announced by
W. 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." "
Preparing for Jetliners, United's
engineers and executives more
Khan five yf.ars ago began to con
sult with aircraft manufacturers in
this country and abroad. Facts on
airframes ar.d engines were as
sembled for analysis. Operational
studies were made in a year-long
"Paper Jet" project started in 1953.
Dally, at San Francisco, dispatch
ers and meterologists planned
const-to-coast flights of theoretical
Jetliners, complete In every detail.
More recently. United ouill a tull
scale cabin- mockun of a jetliner
at its San Francisco maintenance
base. The mockup was used for
