But at full throttle at possibly 40 mph I figured the engine would over heat, so Then I thought that I'd need to build some type of cooling shroud around the cylinders . Well, Not having the time for such I abandoned the idea. however I have seen guzzi engines used on small experimental air planes. Come to think of it, I believe that Guzzi made a V-twin specifically for actual use small air craft, but don't hold me to it. |

They made it for a unmanned aerial vehicle for the Israeli's, and the US Army tested some also.. http://tinyurl.com/4j4xqw Look at the paragraph under the title 'Hunter RQ-5A Air Vehicle'. -- A Harry Krause truism: "It's not a *baby* kicking, beautiful bride, it's just a fetus!"
