a few JU 86 highflying reconissance Planes used twostroke Junkers Jumo
205C-4 liquid-cooled Diesel engines for patrol over Great Britain.

Somebody on another forum was trying to convince people that
because of the gasoline shortages during WW-II that there were

I know that people are playing with that today, but was it
really used in aviation back then?
