 Motors Installed Inside The problem of installing the motors inside the hull of the Akron. with only the propellers projecting. q new step in airship design, was considered early.
 "In order to prove the workabil- ity of such unit," Dr Arnstein continues, "a test stand was built. This was a duplicate of the section of the structure surrounding an engine room and everything was set up just as 1t would be built in the ship.
 The complete power plant unit was tested for about 600 hours, which, assuming an average speed of 70 hours an hour, is equivalent to over 10000 miles,"
 These tests included not only thorough trial of the powerful Maybach engines but of the trarfs- mission, the tilting propellers and their swivelling arrangements, the water recovery system and other power plant auxiliaries.
 In their study of the outer cover the engineers sought to develop better methods of applying the dope" which weatherproofs the ship. They found q dope that would tighten the fabric after it was applied.
 New Balloon Fabric
 The Los Angeles already had been an experimental laboratory for new types of gas cells to be substituted for the expensive "gold beater skin" cells. As result, the Akron has both rubberiZed and a gelatinous latex fabric for its cells.
 There were all sorts of other tests---of joints, girder assemblies. electrical installations, pumps, wir- ing--not only for material but for the discovery of the best technique in applying this material to the airship.
 When the first huge fin was com pleted on the floor of the dock 1t was tested under extreme load and measured for various dehections and stresses.
 A report of every one of these tests was sent to Washington for approval or comment before work could proceed on that particular part. More than a thousand test reports were issued. More than 10000 drawings were made, and from these nearly half a million blueprints printed. All these were needed for the construc- ton of the Akron and for files at the Goodyear-Zeppelin Corpora tion and the navy department at Washington.
 NEXT: Operation tests that must be made before and after the Akron takes the air.
