Just wondering, exactly why are radial diesels not part of the
diesel revival? You can't beat radials on airplanes for smooth

cowling as the engine was still running (the single Otter had
just landed).

If I won the lottery I'd buy a machine shop. My fist project would be
to machine a radial case to accept cylinders off a deutz engine
