AERO ENGINES, ALPHABETICALLY ARRANGED IN ORDER OF COUNTRY OF ORIGIN. ~AUSTRIAN, BELGIAN, BRITISH, FRENCH, GERMAN, ITALIAN, U.S.A.~ ~Note.~--So far as possible this is a complete list of all the aero engines of any importance. Data are confined to what is now being made or actually in use; untested "show novelties" are ignored. In the case of some engines it has for various reasons proved impossible to obtain full data in time for inclusion in this edition. In a general way these lists are confined to aeroplane engines. ~AUSTRIAN.~ ~Revised by Herr Ing. W.
