John, in the not too distant past, I had thought of reviving either my
Ambi or Eldo engine and getting some small boat or craft and coupling
it to a jet ski pump. 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 did. They made it for a unmanned aerial vehicle *for the Israeli's,
and the US Army tested some also..

Look at the paragraph under the title 'Hunter RQ-5A Air Vehicle'.

"The Hunter air vehicle is a fixed wing, twin tail boom aircraft with
a dual rudder. It is propelled by two Moto-Guzzi petrol engines, each
developing 60hp. It is equipped with a global positioning system
navigation system. .."

Way cool!
