Building the American dream Levittown, NY
(
Visual
)
1 edition published in 2005 in English and held by 41 libraries worldwide This historical documentary chronicles New York real estate developer William Levitt's post-war construction of affordable housing for returning World War II veterans and their families in Levittown and other Long Island communities, thereby establishing the prototype for modern suburbia. Tracing the period from 1947 to the present day, the video explores Levitt's vision of rapidly constructing inexpensive tract homes on 60' x 100' lots, featuring rare archival footage and photos, an interview with Levitt and the reminiscences of numerous Levittown residents. The video shows how the federal government, banks and builders like Levitt cooperated in the early postwar years to finance and build affordable housing, reveals how a policy of racial discrimination prevented blacks from buying the homes, and traces the subsequent collapse of Levitt's construction empire.

Prevention Effectiveness Foreign Object Debris Study (PrE-FOD)
(
Book
)
1 edition published in 1998 in English and held by 1 library worldwide This project investigated the effectiveness of several types of support equipment commonly used to prevent Foreign Object Debris (FOD) from damaging aircraft engines and structures. All of the equipment investigated was designed to collect FOD from the flightline surface, thereby reducing damage risk. The study examined motorized flightline sweepers, towable FOD sweepers (FOD-busters), and magnetic bars. A series of site visits was conducted to operational units in order to get user feedback on the effectiveness of the various pieces of equipment. Additionally, a limited controlled experiment was conducted at Wright-Patterson AFB to quantitatively evaluate each of the equipment types. The user comments and the quantitative evaluation both identified serious shortfalls in the Air Force's current FOD prevention equipment, both in terms of effectiveness and reliability. Several possible actions to address these shortfalls are listed in the report.
