he might have dealt with simlar engines when he became an airman after his Middle East career.

A Hispano-Suiza engine?

Aktungbby · 10-17-23, 02:20 AM

My sources indicate it was a British Admiralty requested naval Sunbeam 110 hp engine desired by the Navy for its purposes. Only one was built. It was equipped with a .303 front firing machine gun.

Big hint: it never flew and was deemed a failure for its intended purpose: there is even a 1/72 scale model of it:

< practically a dead giveaway!

Hmm, you said it was French, but could it be the Sizaire-Berwick Wind Wagon (even though it was English)?

I believe I said "joint allied effort"

In 1912 a chassis by the French engineer Sizaire was fitted with a body by F. W. Berwick & Company in London; the first Sizaire-Berwick had been made.

I don't completely understand the question. It's not the ceiling of a room, if that was the question.

Religious building?

Ostfriese · 10-20-23, 09:17 AM

No, although it prominently shows a religious symbol on certain occasions.
