	Aero: Fairchild
		Fairchild developed a camera where the shutter was inside the lens and which produced much clearer images.
		Fairchild took on the task in 1941 of producing military transports designed specifically for that purpose rather than by converting a civilian model to military purposes, as was customary.
		Fairchild purchased the license to manufacture the Fokker F-27 Friendship passenger airplane in 1956, building approximately 200 of six versions as well as its own stretched FH-227 version, which first flew in 1966.

	Fairchild History
		Fairchild began the development and manufacture of airplanes which soon established him as the largest supplier of civilian transport aircraft in the country.
		Fairchild went on to develop many successful civilian and military aircraft including the P-47 Thunderbolt, the C-119 cargo carrier and gunship, the F-105 Thunderchief and the A-10 Thunderbolt II.
		The Fairchild C-82 and C-119 series pioneered the large-scale aerial delivery of military equipment and supplies and was the first successful military transport specifically designed to accommodate the post-World War II concept of an all-air Army.

		Fairchild advised NASA that it would try to meet the Feb. 27 deadline for the revised proposal, but that Mar. 6 was the earliest date it could guarantee submission.
		Fairchild also learned that GE had not yet delivered its bid and asked that its proposal not be submitted to Goddard personnel until receipt of GE's, but the proposal had already been circulated.
		Fairchild claimed that GE could have used the extra week it took to deliver its proposal unfairly, since its contract was already circulating at Goddard during that time.

	Fairchild-Hiller FH-1100 helicopter - development history, photos, technical data
		The LOH contract was eventually won by the Hughes OH-6A, but Hiller, which became a subsidiary of Fairchild Stratos in May 1964, has received some consolation in the reception given to the Model 1100 since, in February 1965, it decided to offer the helicopter in the civil market.
		The Hiller Model 1100 was developed in response to the Army's 1960 solicitation for a new turbine-powered light observation helicopter (LOH), and in 1961 was named a finalist in that holly-contested competition along with the Bell Model 206 and the Hughes Model 369.
		Hiller decided to develop its design as a civil helicopter, resulting in the FH-1100 of which the first production examples were delivered in the summer of 1966.

		But Theron K. Rinehart, research editor at Fairchild, suggested that the color might be orange and dark blue - which were common to that era - so Goodrich, on leave in 1981, tracked down several oldtimers to see if they could confirm these colors.
		Finally, a duplicate model of the original Fairchild K-3 camera was also built to scale and is placed in the rear cabin door window as photos showed it to be.
		It was a Fairchild 71 with special sand tires, an extra tank for gasoline, removable panels and windows to permit geological photography, a 50-foot wing-span (15 meters), a nine-foot propeller (2.7 meters) and folding wings.

		Marshall believed the Fairchild Hiller system would be easier to develop in the time available, but MSC's medics did not think it could meet their requirements for volume measurement and sampling.
		Fairchild Hiller's program manager admitted as much on submitting the final test report: "In effect the statistics are a draw." But MSC had run some tests of is own, which showed greater loss of hormones in dried samples than Bionetics had found.
		Fairchild Hiller's system employed a synthetic membrane made up of microscopic fibers of liquid-repellent material, permeable to gases but not to liquids.
