I have no idea which engine the challenge has
It is indeed American Ken, but it is, perhaps unusually, not in Aerofiles at all.
However, the one available photograph of it is on the web.
I was reluctant to post this one, but after Regs' last one I decided I would.
You know me - clues will be forthcoming soon.

No date available, but you must be close.
One built, which is now archived in a certain American museum.
It's listed in the US aircraft registrations site.
The company was founded by three people and was based at San Leandro California.

As you are at home, why not play this a bit different. Honestly, I don't even know where to start with this one. So what would you recommend me to do first?
I mean, I can list attributes that are pretty obvious, but what then? I have nothing printed out here.

OK American, in Aerofiles. The tail fin looked a bit that way.
Engine: 9-cylinder radial, with sort of cowling. From 1923 - 1935…
Problem with Aerofiles is that the data is in pages containing quite many links to pictures, and once you have a hit, all pictures form that page come out as images in Giggle Image. Is there a work-around?

7 cyclinder radial...one aircraft built of this particular model (modified from an earlier model), appears in photo's both with and without the cowling.
1923-35 will cover it!
Not sure how you are using it - I just use the search facility in Aerofiles itself and is I bring up each page I used the "find'' to search the criteria I am looking for. I've never searched Aerofiles using Google.
