Hmm, I can only comment that that seems (and looks) an awful lot of
engine for an aeroplane that looks about the size of a Tiger Moth.
What was it intended to be used for?

Stand firm for what you believe in, until and unless logic and experience
prove you wrong. Remember: when the emperor looks naked, the emperor *is*
naked, the truth and a lie are not "sort-of the same thing" and there is
no aspect, no facet, no moment of life that can't be improved with pizza.
