Did Mc Donald company invest money in tha aviation manufacturer Mc DOUGLAS or other aviation company?

0

Donald Douglas, who was once a design engineer at Martin Aircraft, formed the Douglas Aircraft Company circa 1920. Douglas and his company turned out some of the most famous and well-built aircraft of all time, some of which are still flying today. The DC-3 (C-47 when in uniform) was a great example. James McDonnell was building aircraft at about the same time, with aircraft like the F-101 and the F-4 Phantom to his name. During the 1960s, both companies were keen to get involved in the new business of rockets and missiles, but both were struggling with airliners and other projects that were only marginally profitable. In 1967, the two companies merged and became McDonnell Douglas. The merged companies’ first major product was the DC-10 airliner, and its later revision became the MD-11 (MD for McDonnell Douglas.) Ronald McDonald does not build aircraft. He barely builds hamburgers.
