B-24 Liberator Production
at Ford's Willow Run Airplane Plant
A website visitor sent me a link to this video on the Fly by Night Videos website of Ford's Willow Run Airplane Plant for the B-24 Liberator. 110' wingspan, four 1,200 hp engines, 300+ mph, 3,000 mile range. The workers turned out one plane every 55 minutes at the height of production, including 1,225,000 parts. 8,685 B-24s were built. It is always amazing to see evidence of the patriotism and dedication that used to be so prevalent in America. Celebrities were proud of our country and its traditions, and many of them willingly and proudly served our country.
