330 OCS3124  1.7 years ago

The Jackson Aircraft Company's Number Ten was the plane that started it all. The now CEO of the Jackson Aircraft Company built the Jackson Aircraft Company Number Ten in his hangar at the local airport, having wanted to build a plane himself. He ended up starting a Company to sell the three planes he had built (JAC-10, JAC-15, JAC-20) (Inspired slightly by his cousin to do so) and the Jackson Aircraft Company (JAC) was born. The Jackson Aircraft Company uses multiples of five in the names of their aircraft, the names always starting with the Company's name IE: The JAC-10, Similar to Boeing and Airbus IE: The B707 and A300. The town had never had an aircaft manufacturer before, but had one when the Jackson Aircraft Company (Jackson's Aircraft Company) was founded. The closest was in the neighboring County (which also inspired the CEO). The plane ended up being a twin boom Aircraft and having two propellers. The JAC-10 (as it is symbolized as) ended up being a serious competitor to its Cessna and beechcraft rivals. It was the first plane built by the Jackson Aircraft Company when it was founded.
