Excerpt from The Curtiss Standard Jn4-D Military Tractor: Hand Book, 1918 Generally as many questions are asked concerning the construction, assembly and details of an aeroplane, as there are men to ask the questions. And it is natural that these questions be directed to the manufacturer of the machine. A careful study of the various requests has resulted in concentrating the questions under the general heading of "How is the machine assembled?" Emphasis has never been previously placed on the correct system for unpacking the component parts, though this would appear to be the logical beginning. While the size and weight of these shipping cases would seem to contradict the warning, too much stress cannot be placed upon the injunction to handle all boxes with care, both in placing and opening. In the manufacture of the parts, the workmen are cautioned by signs all about them: Careless opening of the cases may mean the undue straining of an otherwise rugged member. Realization of this fact and that sufficient care is not always exercised in uncrating and setting up the machines has led to the detailed directions given in this manual. The physical conditions at the assembly depot may be more admirably suited for methods other than those outlined in this Hand Book.
