FOREWORD
SZEKELY ENGINES HAVE MADE POSSIBLE LIGHT, LOW PRICED AIRCRAFT We have always contended that the field in the aviation industry in which the largest volume would obtain, would be in light, low priced ultimately aircraft product, and our experimental and development work has proceedand carefully with a line of engines in conformity with this ed thoroughly
idea. Recent developments in aviation have conclusively proven the soundness of our contention and there is now at hand an insistent demand for a slower, safer, more stable, easier controlled plane, at a price within the reach of the average man and one which can be flown with reasonable instruction.
tured economically and sold to aircraft manufacturers at a price which they could afford to pay, and yet an engine of highest quality and one which would provide long life and good service. This result has been accomplished in our SR-3, Model L and our SR-3, Model O illustrated in this
Our whole attention and development work has been focused on an engine for this particular purpose----one so designed that it could be manufac-
ed appearance
They are free from vibration, a quality of utmost importance to builders of light ships. They are radial in type and conform to the generally acceptof aircraft engines.
serviced.
They are simple in design, which makes them extremely accessible. They can be entirely assembled or disassembled in minimum time, and are easily
that These features and the fact that our engines are assured products there is no guess work as to what they are going to be, when they will be ready or whether they will receive Department of Commerce Approval or not, are some of the reasons for their popularity and why the leaders in the industry have adopted them.
