Effect of higher performance and use of prop-jet engines created new problems for structural engineers; how they were solved in design of new Lockheed Electra; use of mass parameter in calculating gust alleviation factor; method of controlling propeller drag; new windshield technique; engine nacelle loading; taxiing of fully loaded aircraft; provisions for "fail safe" and long fatigue life; use of large precision die forgings; bleed air ducting for de-icing, etc. (see also abstract in Soc Automotive Engrs -- J v 65 n 7 June 1957 p 26-7)
