  • Vought - Wikipedia
    10/27/2020 Vought - Wikipedia Vought Vought was the name of several related American aerospace firms. These have included, in the past, Lewis and Vought Corporation, Chance Vought, Vought Vought-Sikorsky, LTV Aerospace (part of Ling-Temco-Vought), Vought Aircraft Companies, and Vought Aircraft Industries. The first incarnation of Vought was established by Chance M. Vought and Birdseye Lewis in 1917. In 1928, it was acquired by United Aircraft and Transport Corporation, which a few years later became United Aircraft Corporation; this was the first of many reorganizations and buyouts. During the 1920s and 1930s, Vought Aircraft and Chance Vought specialized in carrier-based aircraft for the United States Navy, by far its biggest customer. Chance Vought produced thousands of planes during World War II, including the F4U Corsair. Vought became independent again in 1954, and was purchased by Ling- Temco-Vought (LTV) in 1961. The company designed and produced a variety of The VE-7 was the first aircraft to planes and missiles throughout the Cold War. Vought was sold from LTV and owned launch from a U.S. Navy aircraft in various degrees by the Carlyle Group and Northrop Grumman in the early 1990s. It carrier was then fully bought by Carlyle, renamed Vought Aircraft Industries, with Industry Aerospace headquarters in Dallas, Texas. In June 2010, the Carlyle Group sold Vought to the Triumph Group. Founded 1917 Founders Birdseye Lewis Chance M.

  • Celebrating the Centennial of Naval Aviation in 1/72 Scale
    Celebrating the Centennial of Naval Aviation in 1/72 Scale 2010 USN/USMC/USCG 1/72 Aircraft Kit Survey J. Michael McMurtrey IPMS-USA 1746 Carrollton, TX [email protected] As 2011 marks the centennial of U.S. naval aviation, aircraft modelers might be interested in this list of US naval aircraft — including those of the Marines and Coast Guard, as well as captured enemy aircraft tested by the US Navy — which are available as 1/72 scale kits. Why 1/72? There are far more kits of naval aircraft available in this scale than any other. Plus, it’s my favorite, in spite of advancing age and weakening eyes. This is an updated version of an article I prepared for the 75th Anniversary of US naval aviation and which was published in a 1986 issue of the old IPMS-USA Update. It’s amazing to compare the two and realize what developments have occurred, both in naval aeronautical technology and the scale modeling hobby, but especially the latter. My 1986 list included 168 specific aircraft types available in kit form from thirty- three manufacturers — some injected, some vacuum-formed — and only three conversion kits and no resin kits. Many of these names (Classic Plane, Contrails, Eagle’s Talon, Esci, Ertl, Formaplane, Frog, Griffin, Hawk, Matchbox, Monogram, Rareplane, Veeday, Victor 66) are no longer with us or have been absorbed by others. This update lists 345 aircraft types (including the original 168) from 192 different companies (including the original 33), many of which, especially the producers of resin kits, were not in existence in 1986, and some of which were unknown to me at the time.

When the Korean War ended, production was cut back to planes. A tailless design that proved underpowered, the Cutlass was not long-lived in fleet service, lasting only three years in the fleet following its initial delivery to Fighter Squadron VF 81 in April Although the first Jequipped F4D-1 flew in June , extended acceptance trials delayed production models from reaching operational units until April , eight years after the aircraft was first ordered.

First flight: 20 December Former Messerschmitt AG senior designer Waldemar Voigt, who supervised the development of numerous experimental jet fighters in Nazi Germany, contributed to its design with his experience in the development of the Messerschmitt P. Later, an additional fix consisted of installing large lips along the bottom edges of the engine intakes. For me, it was not a difficult decision because the pilots who had flown the Cutlass praised its handling characteristics and told us that it handled just like other fighters, except better!

  • Integrated Cultural Resource Management Plan Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant Dallas, Dallas County, Texas July 2002
    Integrated Cultural Resource Management Plan Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant Dallas, Dallas County, Texas July 2002 Project Administrator Southern Division Naval Facilities Engineering Command 2155 Eagle Drive North Charleston, South Carolina Prime Consultant Hardy Heck Moore & Associates, Inc. 611 S. Congress Avenue, Suite 300 Austin, Texas Department of the Navy Contract No. 62467-98-D-0094 Delivery Order 0001, Modification 3 I NTEGRATED C ULTURAL R ESOURCES M ANAGEMENT P LAN EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Naval Weapons Industrial Reserve Plant (NWIRP) Dallas, Texas, (Figure 1.1) is a large aircraft and aerospace manufacturing complex in southwest Dallas. Vought Aircraft Industries operates the plant under a lease from the U.S. government. Because it remains under federal ownership, NWIRP Dallas is subject to Section 106 provisions of the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966 (36 CFR 800). This regulation requires that any federally funded project take into consideration its impact on significant cultural resources, i.e., those that are listed in or eligible for the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP). Previous studies (see Table 1.1) have identified Facilities 1, 6, 7, 16, and 49, as being eligible for inclusion in the NRHP. In addition, Facilities 94 and 97 are recommended as being potentially eligible for the NRHP when they reach the 50-year age threshold normally required for NRHP designation. Both buildings will reach that milestone in 2004. The Integrated Cultural Resources Management Plan (ICRMP) serves as a guide for the Department of the Navy and Vought Aircraft Industries to maintain the integrity of the NRHP-eligible buildings in compliance with both federal regulations and Department of Defense (DOD) policies.
