Data presented on drag, weight, cooling and fuel consumption of power plant installations; based upon these data design of three groups of air cooled and liquid cooled airplanes is postulated; groups compared upon basis of equal size and weight, and air cooled aircraft are found to be superior in pursuit, bomber and transport types. (see also Flight v 39 n 1681 Mar 13 1941 p 206h and 207-10 and n 1682 Mar 20 p 222c-f (discussion) n 1688 May 1 p 313-5; Can Aviation v 14 n 5 May 1941 p 24-8 and 41-2; Mech Eng v 63 n 7 July 1941 p 548)
