JUNE 22XD, 1944 FLIGHT Advertisements. 11 Look Up, Builders off Tomorrow! In steadily increasing numbers, United Nations aircraft are utilizing a new structural material. It is known as DURAMOLD. And it is being used "in a great diversity of applications, all the way from dropable gasoline tanks that add hundreds of miles to a plane's normal range, right on up to the entire structure of the plane itself. The current acceptance of DURAMOLD has been gained only after thousands of man-hours spent in exhaustive research for suitable materials, in engineering that pioneered an uncharted course of new techniques, and in testing of finished prod ucts that subjected them to unsparing punish ment far in excess of actual usage. P^fi By the DURAMOLD process Fairchild engineers permanently mold layer • on-layer of wood, fabric, paper or even glass cloth, with special adhesive? applied under heat and pressure, into single and multi-curved surfaces of uniformly high quality. DURAMOLD takes to the skies today as an other example of Fairchild's "touch of tomorrow". The builders of many of tomorrow's civilian prod ucts, far removed from the field of aviation, may look to DURAMOLD as a new basic material which has already proved itself in the toughest test of all—the stress and strain of war.
