Adaptation of an automobile engine for aeronautical use.
-Date of the adaptation: 1948. It gave 26 CV at 3,600 rpm.
"Dyna - Panhard"
-The application of the engine on this utility car, which appeared after WWII like the Citroën 2CV, is mentioned in the main text.
-We have a photo from the English "The Motor" magazine, where we can see the architecture of this engine in a more detailed way with two horizontally-opposed, air-cooled cylinders, in an eminently aeronautical style.
-It is not surprising that it was used in light and sport aircraft.
"El Dyna-Panhard en su coche"
From Appendix 10: After its adaptation this French engine has been installed on the Polish motor-glider "Pegaz" as we see in the drawing below.
"Just as it is announced that it is a Dyna-Panhard"
-As it seems to have 4 cylinders instead of the two on the Dyna-Panhard, the Author supposes that it could better be an RB (Riedel-Borzecki). Therefore it does not seem to correspond the text with the drawing.
-It seems to be a XL-GAD giving 31 CV (?).
