Wright 3350 duplex cyclone as used in the Boeing B29 Superfortress, the Conslidated B32 Dominator, the Constellation, & Fairchild Flying boxcar Instead of sending the Great White Fleet, Teddy R. (you GAVE it away!) could have sent the 'strategic bombers'"...the B-36 was the world's first manned bomber with an unrefueled intercontinental range." The B-29 was the progenitor of a series of Boeing-built bombers, transports, tankers, reconnaissance aircraft and trainers including the B-50 Superfortress (the first aircraft to fly around the world non-stop) which was essentially a re-engined B-29. I think Armistead gets it first though.

Betonov wins it. It is a wasp major 28 cylinder dohicky.

Armistead was very close the twin hornet was a previuos desgin.

Dont have the full photo on my phone.
I used such a close shot because the cylinder head shape and postioning is very distinctive.

This shouldn't be too obscure nor too easy.
It's a piece of art, not a piece of history

So what is it ???



And it's not Jim

This is part of the landing gear and port wing of which aircraft?

This shouldn't take long.
