Asbestos Exposure History in Dallas-Fort Worth
LTV (Ling-Temco-Vought) and predecessor Chance Vought Aircraft operated major manufacturing facilities in Grand Prairie and Dallas, building military aircraft — F-8 Crusaders, A-7 Corsairs, and others — using asbestos-containing brake assemblies, engine compartment insulation, and fireproofing. Workers in LTV's maintenance and manufacturing operations were exposed to these materials throughout the Cold War era. General Dynamics Convair operated in Fort Worth, building B-36 and B-58 bombers with similar asbestos exposure patterns. The Dallas construction industry expanded rapidly in the 1960s-1980s using asbestos building materials. An experienced Texas mesothelioma attorney can identify which trust funds apply to aerospace manufacturing exposure in the Dallas market.
