A beleif in that probably explains why you think you're approach might succeed.

However, those aren't the facts.
Yes he was in the main self-educated ... but by reading the works of many researchers in the university he worked.
Yes he came from a poorer family - but so did most who lived in that time in Germany. 1000% inflation can do that to you
The working DKM engine was a collaboration, directed by Wankel's efforts but not solely.
Hoep you didnt' rely on WIKI for your background on Wankel !"!!!!!



Jeez, Brad, that is looking sweet in the plane support frame. VERY short. How long do you think it will realistically take to get aviation certificatino for it ?
