Increasing demand for better performance, greater useful load, and more comfort in commercial airplanes; spontaneous trend toward monoplane design in single-engined cabin planes; magnitude of demand for light low-priced airplane and its production problems; some cost figures on wood and metal construction; ratio between amount that may be expended and weight saved; problems in wheel brakes and in demand for higher speeds.
