During the early stages of the turbojet assembly, workman at the General Electric company's Lockland Ohio jet center are shown as they tighten compressor casing bolts. Engines produced at the Lockland jet center are almost completely assembled in a vertical position during initial build-up and are tipped to a horizontal position only to receive the tail cone and accessories which go into the nose section.
