What engine would you like?
What would be the ideal configuration for an aircraft engine, given
contemporary technology? 1. Start at 0 degrees F with no fuss? 2. Water cooling for dependable cabin heat? 3. Automatic mixture control for altitude & power? 4. Automatic timing control? 5. Jet fuel (availability)? 6. Piston (for economy)? 7. Choice of RPM at cruise for same power? I believe that delivering brand new airplanes with 1940s engines makes no sense whatever.
