It was intended for use by officers, N.C.O.s and men undergoing training, and by mechanics and technicians in the day to day operation and maintenance of military aero engines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe manual features details of the design, assembly and operation of the engines fitted to RFC aircraft during 1917-18, including the 110 h.p. Clerget, 120 h.p. Beardmore, 80 h.p. Gnome, 90 h.p. R.A.F., 200 h.p. R.A.F., 80 h.p. Le Rhone, and 100 h.p. Monosoupape. These engines were used in many of the RFC’s iconic aircraft, including the Sopwith Camel, Avro 504, Sopwith Pup, BE2c, and Airco DH6. The manual is illustrated with drawings and diagrams, and includes engine fault-finding tables.\u003cspan style=\"caret-color: rgb(85, 85, 85); color: rgb(85, 85, 85); font-family: -apple-system, BlinkMacSystemFont, 'Segoe UI', Roboto, 'Fira Sans', 'Droid Sans', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: left; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-color: rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.05); text-decoration: none; display: inline !important; float: none;\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCondition:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn good condition.
