We have made aperture synthesis multifield observations of Orion Molecular Cloud-1 (OMC-1) in the CS (J=1-0) line using the Nobeyama Millimeter Array (NMA), and obtained 9” resolution maps over 10’ length. The OMC-1 ridge shows a wiggled structure. The position angle of whole the ridge is ~ 0° - 10°, but ~ 20° - 30°around the clumps. It is possible to make this structure by the magnetic field with a position angle of ~ 150°. We also found filamentary structures in the northwest of Orion-KL, with a length-width ratio of more than 25, which are made by the gas flow from Orion-KL.
