The plane is now being built by the Rogers Con- truction Company in Gloucester City. It will carry freight between New York and Pittsburgh. The freight-carrying flier is being constructed for the> Aerial Transport Company of New York, and if the ! experiments with the first plane show I that an air freight sen-ice will be profitable here, as it has proved in d Europe, more planes will be built and g. freight carried between .other large cities and New York, e Early in the present years there : t was considerable published' about the > It New York concern's plans to establisB a freight line, and a number of ] drawings were made of designs that ► were afterward discarded. The con- j tract for the plane was finally award- i e ed the Rogers Company and the work - ® has been progressing quietly in a ] 5 shop where the people of Gloucester thought nothing but toys were being manufactured. It was stated at the ; trac* was not secured in competition J | but because the plant is equipped to ( ' produce everything excepting the mo- ] tor, while there is scarcely a place in i the country that could manufacturethe plane wrthout^twiving a number ' of parts manufactured outside- ] j Could Carry Twelve Men ] The compartment in which freight '1 is to be carried is 17 feet long. It is | expected that 2,000 pounds ^an be J ; carried, ft it is necessary to use the I plane as - a passenger flier, twelve -I averaging 160 pounds each, car. £ find roomi in the cabin and still be a few pounds under the weight capac- ■ ity of the flier. It is estimated that the plane will I fly at a speed of 90 miles an hour with its Liberty motor of 400 hjysepower. The spread of the wings will | cover 54 feet | The uninitiated in aeroplane mat- * , ters know of nothingtthat can be us^tl Tor wipgs but carefully treated linen i canvas. The plane will have wings | of wood. The whole machine, exceptthe motor and the ' supporting 'g is made of ply-wood- Ply- 1 0 wood is not a particular- growth, hut h the name given to light lumber Torm- lR ed o'f many thin pieces glued into';. 1 required thickness. The cabin of the,n plane is now mahogany, which wili-s ■ be polished. « Gloucester has a number of expert j | aeroplane mechanics and .cabinet- ' ri ! makers who know how to construct si the woodwork to secure strength and w yet maintain lightness.
