1943 Air Progress Magazine

I found a June 1943 Air Progress magazine in a box of my fathers stuff in the attic. Thought I would share a bit of it.

Interesting....

Cool old mag. Hmmm, swarms of grasshoppers invading with gorillas ( I thought gorillas only flew P-59s!)! Sounds interesting!

Neat!

What's up with that Gooney Bird? I've seen stack fires on startup, but is a fire inside the engine cowl like that considered normal? I assume it only lasted for a second or so.
