FOKKER TO BUILD FIVE
SHIPS FOR COAST GUARD
Specially Designed Flying Boats
Will Carry Crew of Four, With
Space for Rescued Persons.

Five big twin-engined flying boats
OF an entirely new type have been Or
dered by the United States Coast
Guard and will be built by the Fokker
Aircraft Corporation, at total cost.
including spare parts, of $316,696, ac-
cording to an announcement by Rear
Admiral F. C. Billiard, commandment of
the Coast Guard.
The new planes will be used not only
for long-range observation work along
and off the coasts, but in emergency as
flying lifeboatS," Admiral Billiard said.
The design was worked out to meet
the special requirements of the Coast
Guard. A single cantilever wing, ~
feet in span, is mounted directly on a
strongly built hull of duralunin and
steel, of sufficient size and strength to
permit landings and take-offs with
safety in heavy weather off shore, where
present types Of Coast Guard planes
cannot operate. Two Pratt g. Whitney
Wasp motors, driving three-bladed
pusher propellers, are to be mounted
side by side above and well back on the
wing.
Where present types of Coast Guard
patrol planes carry only pilot and OBJ
server, the new types will carry a crew
of four, with space for rescued per-
sons. A flying range of 1000 miles
will permit operations to limits never
before possible. Each of the planes
will carry powerful radio outfits for
code and telephone communication
and direction finding.
Delivery of the planes is expected
next Spring.
