The development and production of aircraft, missiles, and spacecraft are the work of a large number of establishments in several in dustries. About three-fourths of the workers in these activities, about 765,000 in September 1958, were in establishments in the aircraft and p arts industry group. This group is divided into four major industries: Aircraft (end product assembly) plants with more than 460,000 workers; aircraft engine and engine parts plants with nearly 155,000; aircraft parts plants (except engine and propeller parts) with more than 130,000; and aircraft propeller and prop e l l e r parts plants with less than 20,000. Various Types of Vehicles and Engines Manufactured Differing kinds of aircraft, guided m i s siles, and spacecraft are produced, including: Airplanes and helicopters; guided missiles, which range from relatively small rockets carried by and fired from airplanes to much larger models fired from the surface of the earth, from ships, or from submarines; and space vehicles which may vary in size from a few p o u n d s Gliders, to over dirigibles, a thousand pounds. and balloons are also produced. Another 100,000 workers in this field are estimated to be employed in establishments in the electronics industry, engaged in designing Many types of engines are manufactured to and manufacturing electronics equipment for propel these craft. Spacecraft are powered by rocket engines; aircraft and missiles may aircraft, missiles, and spacecraft.

Employment Trends Another sizable group of people employed exclusively in the aircraft, missile, and ties The trend of employment in these activi viii since the end of W o r l d War II h a s generally been upward but reductions in D e fense Department spending in several periods Geographic and Occupational Employment Distribution has resulted in temporary employment declines. Employment in the aircraft and parts industry between 1946 and 1950 remained fairly stable, The total of more than a million workers engaged in aircraft, missile, and spacecraft ranging from a low of about 238,000 in 1946 to a high of about 282,000 in 1950. The Korean hostilities resulted in a sharp rise in employment. Prom the 1950 level, the num activities in the fall of 1958 was distributed throughout the United States. However, 7 States accounted for a large proportion of the total work force: California had about a third; another two-fifths were employed in ber of workers increased to about 464,000 a year later. This rise was due not only to the accelerated production of military manned New York, Ohio, Connecticut, Texas, Kansas and Washington.

Employment decreased in the latter than 870,000 workers on its payrolls, and at different levels of skill are employed in the design and manufacture of aircraft, part of 1957 and in early 1958, but turned upward in mid-1958 and by September totaled missiles, and spacecraft. Among these workers are engineers and scientists with advanced nearly 765,000. college degrees as well as plant workers who learned their jobs after a few days or weeks of training. The trend of employment in the electronics industry, which manufactures prod u c t s for aircraft, missiles, and spacecraft, has gen The emphasis upon research and development erally corresponded to the upward trend of employment in the aircraft and parts industry. and the constant changes in design and p r o duction methods make this occupational field There has probably been a relatively greater growth of employment in electronics establish an important source of employment for engi neers, scientists, technicians, and crafts men. A study of science and engineering in ments than in the aircraft and parts industry, because of the large increase in the amount American industry made by the Bureau of Labor Statistics for the National Science Foundation showed that in 1956 the aircraft industry (the largest segment of this field) exceeded of electronics equipment used for aircraft (many planes today carry nearly twice as much electronic apparatus as they did 10 years ago) and the great volume of e l e c t r o n i c s equipment needed for missiles and spacecraft. all other industries in money spent on re search and development. The study also showed It is estimated that electronic components that in January 1957 the aircraft industry had the highest proportion of scientists and engineers engaged in research and development make up 10-20 percent of the total cost of a manned aircraft, and 30-60 percent of the cost of a missile. activity, and a higher ratio of supporting craftsmen than other industries.
