Backs, 317 North Hitler and Tojo Won't Like This Production News The Ford-operated Willow Run Bomber plant is producing approximately one four-engined B-24 Liberator bomber an hour, it was disclosed today by J. R. Davis, western regional manager—a goal the plant set for itself two years ago. The production of a completed Liberator bomber-an-hour, which was revealed with War Department permission, has been in effect since February. Davis also stated that the giant Willow Run plant is now supplying 80 percent of all emergency shipments of spare parts and more than 50 percent of all spare parts used on B-24 Liberator bombers. In the first quarter of 1944 more B-24 Liberator bombers rolled off the Willow Run production line than the entire production up to last October, Davis said. Many of the production difficulties at Willow Run were overcome when the management decided last summer to farm-out a large part of the sub-assembly work on the Liberators. Both management and Army Air Forces representatives have indicated that additional increases in production volume are likely at Willow Run. Davis disclosed that the Willow Run plant had been ahead of its production schedule for seven months when it observed the third anniversary of its ground breaking, April 18.
