The Andre Hexagonal Tube Radiator

The honeycomb type radiator was, by reason of its general use on automobiles, the first of its kind employed on airplanes. In view of the wide popularity this type enjoys, owing to simplicity of mounting in the nose of the fuselage, and the minimum length of tubing and small number of joints required, particular interest attaches to an improved honeycomb radiator which is the invention of Vincent André, a well known French aeronautical engineer.

PUBLISHER’S NEWS LETTER

Inevitably, there has been criticism by other manufacturers of the order placed with the Atlantic Aircraft Corporation by the Army Air Service for 100 welded steel fuselages for DH planes. This criticism in effect is that (1) the order was not given to the lowest bidder or divided between the three companies which were under Atlantic Aircraft; (2) that the business has been placed with a new company which, though operating an American factory with American personnel, represents the entry of a foreign manufacturer into the field; (3) that the result will be to give foreign interests the benefit of our information ; (4) that the placing of a comparatively large contract with a new manufacturer is an injustice to those established American manufacturers who have no business at all or who are completing small contracts with no new business in sight.
