02:12:21 Engineers looking at drawings / blueprints on desk & at drafting board. Room of draftsmen.
02:12:37 Avrocar moved out of hanger seen from above w/ US Air Force, US Army markings. Narrator gives operating specifications.
02:13:03 Full scale Avrocar mockup being constructed of wood; motor / engine above, fuel tanks & motor in place. Finished mock-up w/ plexiglass hoods. Men checking w/ blueprints.
02:15:04 1/20 scale model tested in wind tunnel by engineers or technicians.
02:15:32 1/5 scale model being assembled; tested in wind tunnel at Wright Air Development Center (WADC). Flow visualization shown.
02:16:42 Full scale 20-foot segment of perpheral nozzle & outer portion of wing constructed & tested for propulsion & control. CU spoiler rings & adjustment seen.
02:17:42 Control room scenes w/ automatic recording equipment. Ribbons showing air movement from propulsion system of test section.
02:18:14 MS of man operating model of the skeleton during hovering of Avrocar w/ electrically driven gyro simulating turbo-rotor & operates gates controlling emission on air. Model flown around in room. GOOD.
