Welding a Nacelle Fairing. Digital ID 17420_a014_a014001285. Assembling the Beaufort Bomber's engine nacelle fairing, or aerodynamically shaped engine cover, at the Dept of Aircraft Production's factory at Chullora Workshops, c.1943. An all tubular welded steel construction, the nacelle fairing's two small and two large doors can be seen. The jig upon which the nacelle fairing is being constructed was designed and constructed by the NSW Government Railways after the Bristol Aeroplane Company was unable in 1940 to supply jigs, tools and gauges as it planned, due to the worsening war situation in Europe.
