The development of large-capacity transport planes in the U.S. and U.S.S.R., with freight air containers, is seen as ushering in complete air freight systems with world-wide capacity. Recovery rates were observed in Swiss gravel mines to be raised by continuously operating bucket wheel type 100 dredges. Extensions and improvements were made to the type GK 81/UB 600 mobile crane, oil-hydraulic container elevators, and explosion-proof compressed-air hoists. (Author)
