Hello Folks,

I've always been amazed at the number of aircraft produced in the US in such a relatively short time. If one considers that even a single engine fighter has on the order of 10,000 parts (all those little brackets, etc.), how did they product the 100,000 or so aircraft! I'm interested in finding photos of aircraft production lines, especially those of the P-47. Can anyone point me to where I can find such photos?

Thanks,
Bill
