Production. B-24 bombers and C-87 transports. Final additions are made to the shell of a consolidated transport plane in preparation for its trip down the final assembly line of a Western aircraft plant. This new transport, an adaptation of the B-24 bomber, is known as the C-87, and carries one of the greatest human or cargo loads of any plane now in mass production. It is built in a plant equipped with one of the best air conditioning and fluorescent lighting systems in the country
