Some of the text in this Vintage Ad:
The touch of tomorrow in the planes of today
It all adds up to subtracting Zeros
Today's apprentice gunner enters a deadly
trade-defending American bombers against
vicious attacks of Jap Zeros and other
heavily armed enemy fighters.
To follow his trade and survive, the gunner first has to learn how to “polish 'em off
around the clock." His training must be
thorough and painstaking, and it must come
within a hair's breadth of being the real
thing. That's why Fairchild developed the
GUNNER.
This advanced trainer has the essential
characteristics of the bombers from which
our student marksmen will soon shoot it
out with Axis pursuits. From a power turret,
similar to one on a Flying Fortress, each
fledgling is taught to pick off tiny targets
while moving at better than 200 miles per
hour. It's fast, tricky work and it takes a
keen eye, steady nerves, precision equipment. It's the kind of training that pays
off when the chips are down.
Fairchild's GUNNER, from which apprentice marksmen step into bombers and thence
into action, is one of the largest, speediest
training planes used by the Army Air Forces.
Powered by two 12-cylinder, inverted, inline, air-cooled Ranger engines, the GUNNER
is a typical example of Fairchild's "touch
of tomorrow in the planes of today."
