Marvellous photos Gene, thanks for those, far more than we hoped might exist. Do we know the history of how these photos come to be. Some sort of interest in aviation or military ? ----- ORIGINAL MESSAGE FOLLOWS ----- Indeed, The Excelsior factory was engaged in making these engines during the war as well as at least a cursory test run on one of the upper floors of the factory. I have a few pictures of the engine manufacturing process and testing facility. I'll post them for you. Pretty interesting stuff! Gene |
