'Hi

A friend is planning to build a replica from the
twenty?s. The aircraft was built for the Swedish
air force.



It was equipped with a 6 cyl. Junker L5 engine.
Those engines are gone long time ago.

He has asked me if we know any application where
the Ranger was installed with the cylinders
upright or if there is some kind of modification
to do so.

'Paul,



Yes the Ranger has been installed with the Cylinders upright in WW I
aircraft and others. Has also been installed sideways in race cars. I don?t
have any more info in the FC DVD. It has been documented over the years in
the EAA mags.
