Wingspanner....Engines and cowls are not the problem. "Lettuce" hope that I can become a master of large tri-plane wing alignment. I cannot afford to buy a third Pfalz kit!!! |

Sorry to hear of the passing of Klaus. I would have liked to be present at the internment ceremony so I could pay proper respect. |

Lack of quality lube oil doomed this engine design. THe poor oil near the end of WWi severly limited the number of hours before the engine self destructed. |

The cowl is hand shaped from the kit parts. After this is smooth I will try covering it with Al tape. If I screw up I can change my plan with cowl II. Quite a lot of the engine should be visible. |

11 cylinder Siemens Halske rotary representation. In progress. FYI, this rotary was unique. The cylinders and central crank case rotated clock wise. Gears rotated the prop and front of the crankcase counterclockwise. Eliminates the torque problem of |
