Description
...another birthday mate!
...remember this 80HP Le Rhone engine in Topeka Rob? Good for powering a Nieuport 11 or a Sopworth Pup...if you've got one of those sitting around:-)
...here it is all shined up for you:)
This one was made under license in Swissvale, Pennsylvania and accepted by the US Army Signal Corps on December 5, 1918.
