A 'Gnome' Rotary engine.

[Tomlinson]

This engine is another Les Chenery design. Only one casting was required.

Stunning - I wish I had half the skill.

Spectacular! So completed between 2002 & 2003? Any videos of it running or any follow along build chronology on another forum?

Hello petertha. Thanks for the comments.
Unfortunately I haven't made a video of this engine, and until recently I wasn't a member of any forum so no further information.

The only other build information is what I have posted recently on this forum.

Very nice workmanship. Is it all steel aside from the one casting?

I have an empty cowling on a Proctor Nieuport 11 that certainly would benefit from such an engine. Is there anyone around here who'd willing to sell the casting(s) for this? I am able to do the rest.

Thank you.
