Summary edit

Description Lot 3124-4: Paintings of Naval Aviation during World War II: Abbott Collection. #49: “Ready on the Line” Artwork by Joseph Hirsch. “But first, before the Navy gives its airplanes into the hands of the crews, a rigid schedule of inspection and maintenance must be observed. This is the 30-hour check, when plane captain and his crew swarm over the Beechcraft transport to insure airworthiness. The engine, propeller, cowling, skin, controls, rudders, every part is checked and inspected for the effects of wear and weather. Note here the quartet beneath the empennage going over every inch of the elevator and its controls.” (7/10/2015).
