The new headquarters for the manufacture of Franklin engines in Poland, located in the city of Grudziadz.

-Dedicated to general service of Franklin engines and others, propellers, etc. Certified by EASA.

-Reviewing the Franklin engines in the USA made by "Air-cooled Engines", we notice some constructive differences such as, for example, that in the first models both spark plugs went together at the top of the cylinders side by side.
