AERO ENGINES,

ALPHABETICALLY ARRANGED IN ORDER OF COUNTRY OF ORIGIN.

~AUSTRIAN, BELGIAN, BRITISH, FRENCH, GERMAN, ITALIAN, U.S.A.~

~Note.~--So far as possible this is a complete list of all the aero engines of any importance.

Data are confined to what is now being made or actually in use; untested "show novelties" are ignored.

In the case of some engines it has for various reasons proved impossible to obtain full data in time for inclusion in this edition.

In a general way these lists are confined to aeroplane engines.
