Régnier Motor Company
Régnier Motor Company (Fr:''Société anonyme des établissements Emile Regnier'') was a French aircraft engine manufacturer founded by Émile Régnier in the 1920s. Régnier was a World War I flying ace. Postwar, he became the French agent for de Havilland. He displayed a Gipsy III and Gipsy Major at the 1932 Paris Air Show. He later built de Havilland Gipsy series engines under license. Some sources suggest that he began in the 1920s. According to Gunston he only began manufacture with the Gipsy Major and Gipsy Six, which appeared respectively in 1932 and 1933. These were both air-cooled inverted inline types, of four and six cylinders respectively, and shared many common parts. By 1934, he began building his own inverted inline designs as the Régnier Motor Company. He developed an inverted air-cooled six-cylinder engine for use in a privately entered Caudron C.366 to compete in the ''Coupe Deutsch de Meurthe'' air race in 1934. The 217 brake horsepower motor was developed ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Type Certificate
A type certificate signifies the airworthiness of a particular category of aircraft, according to its manufacturing design (''type design''). Certification confirms that the aircraft of a new type intended for serial production is in compliance with applicable airworthiness requirements established by the national air law. For up to three seats, Airworthiness certificate#Special Airworthiness Certificate, primary category aircraft certification costs around US$1 million, US$25 million for a general aviation aircraft and hundreds of millions of dollars for a commercial aircraft; certification delays can cost millions of dollars and can decide a program's profitability. Authority A type certificate (TC) is issued to signify the airworthiness of the approved design or "type" of an aircraft to be manufactured. The TC is issued by a regulatory authority, and once issued, the design cannot be changed unless at least part of the process for certification is repeated to cover the changes ...

SNECMA Régnier 4L
The SNECMA-Régnier 4L is a French four cylinder air-cooled inverted inline piston engine, introduced shortly after the end of World War II. Design and development Régnier Motor Company's introduction to aircraft engine production came after acquisition of licences to build the de Havilland Gipsy Major and Gipsy Six. Though they remained influenced by de Havilland practice their products began to diverge and eventually contained original designs. By the mid-1930s they had several four cylinder air-cooled inverted inline engines on offer, including the R.4L-02 displayed at the 1936 Paris Air Show. Though it shared a name with a post-war model, the two engines were very different: the 1936 engine produced from about 4 litres and with a dry weight near , the later reached from 6.3 litres at a weight of . During the Occupation of France and in the years shortly after World War II, Régnier designed and produced a set of three simplified four-cylinder inverted air-cooled inli ...

Occupation Of France
The Military Administration in France (; ) was an Military Administration (Nazi Germany), interim occupation authority established by Nazi Germany during World War II to administer the occupied zone in areas of northern and western French Third Republic, France. This so-called ' was established in June 1940, and renamed ' ("north zone") in November 1942, when the previously unoccupied zone in the south known as ' ("free zone") was also occupied and renamed ' ("south zone"). Its role in France was partly governed by the conditions set by the Armistice of 22 June 1940 after the success of the leading to the Battle of France, Fall of France; at the time both French and Germans thought the occupation would be temporary and last only until Britain came to terms, which was believed to be imminent. For instance, France agreed that its French prisoners of war in World War II, soldiers would remain prisoners of war until the cessation of all hostilities. The "French State" (') replace ...
