[edit] Aircraft Company information

I pulled this information out of the BT-13 Valiant article and placed it here until I can determine if it is needed in the Aircraft Company articles it refers to.

  • 1932: When Lockheed-Detroit fails, Gerard "Jerry" Vultee forms the Airplane Development Corp. financed by E.L. Cord.
  • 1934: Reformed as the Airplane Manufacturing Corp. owned by AVCO (of which Cord is a partner).
  • 1936: Renamed the Vultee Aircraft Division of the Airplane Manufacturing Corp.
  • 1940: AVCO merges Stinson with Vultee to form Vultee Aircraft Inc.
  • 1943: Vultee acquires Consolidated to form Consolidated-Vultee
