WW1 Clerget 9B Rotary Engine (Half Cylinders)

The Clerget 9B was a nine-cylinder rotary aircraft engine  of the WW1 era designed by Pierre Clerget. Manufactured in both France and Great Britain. Beginning in 1911, and until manufacturing rights were sold to Renault, Clerget, Blin, and Cie of Paris, France, built various types of airplane engines, but mainly air-cooled rotaries. During World War I, the company's effort was concentrated almost entirely on this type of engine. Gwynnes, Ltd., Hammersmith Iron Works, London, England, controlled the British manufacturing rights on Clerget engines.
