EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the Series VIIA, direct drive E86 airplane engine produced in 1927. A marvel of engineering innovation, this engine was a significant advancement in aviation technology during the golden age of flight. The Series VIIA, direct drive E86 was manufactured by Napier, a leading British engineering company known for its pioneering work in aircraft engines. The engine's sleek design and intricate details are evident in this image, with the "Napier" insignia proudly displayed on the engine's side. The Series VIIA was a direct drive engine, meaning it did not require a gearbox to transmit power to the propeller, making it more efficient and lighter than its geared counterparts. The E86 engine was powered by eight banks of six-cylinder engines, each cylinder displacing 1.5 liters, resulting in a total displacement of 24.2 liters. It produced an impressive 575 horsepower, enabling the airplanes it powered to reach impressive speeds and altitudes. The Series VIIA engine was used in various aircraft models during the late 1920s and early 1930s, including the famous de Havilland DH.60 Moth and the Armstrong Whitworth Siskin. This engine's power and reliability were essential for the development of long-distance flights and record-breaking achievements during this era. This photograph is a testament to the ingenuity and determination of the engineers and designers who brought these magnificent machines to life. The Series VIIA, direct drive E86 engine represents a pivotal moment in the history of aviation and transportation, paving the way for the advanced engines of today.
