DW Image # 143: Airplane assembly, De Havilland DH-4, plant 1 (Neg #25), 1918 June 28

Completed De Havilland DH-4 fuselage at the Dayton-Wright Airplane Company Plant 1 June 28, 1918. The photograph shows the completed fuselage of a De Havilland DH-4 at the Dayton-Wright Airplane Company Plant 1. The airplane is parked near a window and has no wings but is otherwise complete. The Scarff ring is installed and the aircraft does not have a hood so the Liberty Engine is exposed. Other DH-4 fuselages are visible in the same building. In the background outside the building other DH-4s can be seen with Dayton-Wright Employees. The title of the negative is "The Dayton-Wright Airplane Co. Plant 1. - June 28-18." and labeled 25.
