Group,
Here are pictures taken today of Jens Berger's first assembled prototype 5-cylinder radial which I hope will be a production engine in due course. I still don't have the full specification on this motor but it looks absolutely right for the basic Flitzer types, a comment with which he agrees wholeheartedly.
Jens has just installed the induction and exhaust pipes which he's welded and polished. It will be installed in his latest Kiebitz biplane as a flying test bed. Five other prototypes have been initiated.
Regards,
Lynn
