Excellent additions from everyone, especially more of the lesser known interwar types.

Good evening, guys.

Thanks for the feedback!
Some vintage aircraft from UK and USA, all with radial engines.

Probably, one of the airliners with more pleasent figure from the interwar war era, the British Armstrong Whitworth AW.27 Ensign. Powered by 4 Armstrong Siddeley Tiger 800 or 850 hp engines, it was planned for the long range routes of Imperial Airways. The tiger radial was found underpowered, and the following model Mk. II was equiped with American 950 hp Cyclone 9 radials. Unfortunatelly, with WWII no more aircraft were done, and the model doesn't see post war servicel.


In almost the other extreme of the size line in airliners was the Short S.16 Scion. Motorized by a pair of reliable and well liked Pobjoy Niagara radials, was in use in UK and Australia in the inmediate prewar years.


Travel Air was a company active in the buisness before being acquired by Curtiss Wright. Among the models in the catalogue was a 6 place airliner, Travel Air 6000, which was leter commercialized by Curtiss Wright as the CW-6. Two were bought by the Paraguayan Air Corps and were used as air ambulances in the Chaco War.


Kinner Sportster was a little touring monoplane motorized by the equally little 5 cylinder Kinner radial.


Douglas O-38E was an observation biplane of conventional (welded steel tubes, wood and fabric) construction and was in use by the US National Guard as well as de Army Air Corps. Was also used by Peru in the short Colombian-Peruvian 1933 war.



Finally, a well liked executive aircraft for corportations and wealthy individuals, WACO sesquiplane with custom cabin C series. Equiped with almost all the radial engines of the 200-350 hp range available (Jacobs, Wright, Continental, Lycoming), it was a versatile design. Rugged, reliable, easy to fly and responsive, it was con conventional contruction, but carefully designed (and luxurious) interiors.


Cheers.
