What we need is an engine with plenty of power, plenty of cylinders for
smoothness, slow turning with heaps of torque to drive a nice big
propeller efficiently, an engine that is efficient with a BSFC of around
.27 lbs/hp/hr instead of about .47 and not only be light weight, but
will run on any available fuel.
