Goodyear Aircraft Corporation developed the craft to test the possibilities of Airmat as structural material for aireraf t. Wing, tail assemblies and pilot's seat are made af the material, A Goodveai- Tire & Rubber Comnpany praduet consisting of joined layers of inflatable rubber-coated nylon fabric shaped by thousands of dropped pile-threads. Conical- shaped fuselage is made of airship fabric. Craf t is powered by a two-cycle, 40-horse- power enginc. Experimental 'plane is first of its kind in the United States. Quantity produiction is flot planned. The Airpiane Deflated With wing and tail assemblies folded neatly o-ver the inflated seat section, remainder of Goodyear Aircraf t Corporation's inflatable airpiane, the engine and its tubular support, is shauldered by Engineer Rager L. Wolcott. The 'plane, which is constructed primarily of rubberized fabric, is made rigid by less air pressure than is required ta pump up a tire on the f amily car. Goodyear Has Aircraft Thot Can Be Deflated An inflatable airpiane that can be deflated and packed in the trunk of the family car has been flown for the first time at Goodyear Aircraft Corporation. Designed and developed Liy the company te test the possi- bilities of rubberized Airmdt fabric as structural material for aircraft the lightweight plane is made rigid by air pressure. Wing, tail assemblies and pilot's seat are made of Airmat material, a Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company product cori- sisting cf jeined layers of in- flatable rubber-coafed nylon fabric shaped by thousands of dropped pile threads. The craft's conical shaped fuselage is made cf airship fabric. Inflated, the plane resembles a glider with a pilot seated at the front cf the ship. Deflated, it can be packed in a trunk. Les air pressure than that required te inflate passenger car tires is needed te, pump up the plane. The single-place, high-wing monoplane bas a two-cvcle, 40- horsepower motor mounted on a tubular support above the fuselage directly behind the wing. Only other metal support connects the wheels and pilot's seat with the fuselage. High- sfrength, fan-shaped patches of rubberized material are used te attach the various members, struts and other support's. Goodyear Aircraft designed and built the inflafable' plan'c in a little more than 12 weeks. It is the first cf its kind in the United States. Until further development is complete, dis- closure of additional informa- tion is net contemplafed by the manufacturer. Quantify pro- duction is nof planned.
