What's better than one engine at the meeting? TWO engines at the meeting! The engine in the rear is a rotary engine, not to be confused with a Wankel. On this engine the crankshaft, rods and pistons are stationary (fastened to the airframe) and the rest of it spins. This type of engine was used on the Fokker Dr. 1 Triplane made famous by the Red Baron Manfred Von Richthofen in World War I
