VISUAL DESCRIPTION
The image from Fairchild Engine & Airplane Corporation showcases an innovative fuel tank design dubbed "egg" due to its unique shape. Designed during a period when extending range was crucial for military operations, this advertisement highlights how these tanks allowed warbirds—fighter planes—to reach further into enemy territory without refueling stops. Here we see these eggs being prepared before they grant extra miles to Navy planes, illustrating yet another step toward efficiency in wartime logistics—a blend of practical engineering solutions meeting urgent needs.
