John Ferrero (J&C Aircraft Engines) converted one for a Bristol Fighter (I think it was) replica. John is working his way out of the business - getting old like me - but he knows how to upright a Ranger.

Hi Paul
I am sure some one will know how to make a ranger engine run the wrong way up!!
I am sure some one used to run a Ranger in a dragster ?
G-RGUS will be over on Saturday for you to have a play with.
Good luck in your quest
James

Hello
I am a new member of your group & very pleased to be here. I have not joined any
group before, so am a complete newbie.
I am based in the UK, and I own and operate a full scale replica Fokker DRI
(G-FOKK) which I scratch built using Ron Sands plans.
I am at the very early stages of deciding whether or not to use a Ranger engine
in one of my projects, a full scale replica of a Fokker DVII. I am scratch
building it from plans.
I have joined the group because I understand the members have a huge range of
expertise on this particular engine, and hope that I can learn more to help in
my decision.
I am told that I am better at building aircraft than I am at mastering the
internet, so please be patient with me while I learn the ropes here!
Grateful thanks
Paul
