Page aviation: Gee bee

Article Abstract:

A brief review of the comparison between two new Models Gee Bee R-1 and R-2 powered by engines borrowed from Pratt and Whitney for the upcoming races by the Granville Brothers is presented. The R1 was designed around the new R-1340ci 9-cylinder, 800hp engine and R-2 was destined for the longer Bendix Trophy race, so it was designed around the R-985ci, 535hp P&W engine, which allowed the R-2 to fly faster and make fewer stops.
