| Joe Holden Kissimmee, FL | In reviewing this site I notice that the AM-1 is credited with two different engines either the R3350 the same as the AD-1 or the R-4360 which was the powerplant for the B-36 and if I recall correctly one of the F4U Corsair varients also used the R4360. 07/08/2002 @ 16:05 [ref: 5266] |
