R2-1

There were loads of radial engines (sometimes called “round engines”) to be seen and heard at this year’s EAA AirVenture Oshkosh. Antique/Classic and Warbird aircraft powered by radials were numerous, and some aerobatic and homebuilts used various versions of radial engines too.

Here are a number of aircraft powered by radial engines, if you hover over the thumbnail you can get engine and type information or click for a larger photo. There’s a gallery with miscellaneous photos too.

Assignment and Content Editor, writer and photographer A New Englander all of my life, I've lived in New Hampshire since 1981. My passion for all things aviation began at a very early age, and I coupled this with my interest of photography during college in the late 1970s. I spent 35 years in the air traffic control industry, and concurrently, enjoyed my aviation photography and writing adventures, which continue today. I've been quite fortunate to have been mentored by some generous and gifted individuals. I enjoy contributing to this great site and working with some very knowledgeable and equally passionate aviation followers.
