P. Mengin Type B Aircraft Engine




 Seen at the 2023 Paris Vintage show.  Not much info online on this small  28 hp two cylinder aircraft engine built from 1933-1940. I wonder what airplanes of that period would use an engine of that size. More pictures hereMore info here

You guys have *families?*

While I'm here: Those superlong carb-head intakes seem designed to encourage carburetor icing. Maybe the engines were used only on dry Sundays to take the pilot to church?
