Horse Power Disappointment." Another disappointment is that the engine, which it was hoped would develop 700 horse power, is now only to develop a steady 585 hp. with a maximum of 650 h.p., but the arrangement of eight cylin ders in line permits installation in a very narrow car net offering much resistance to the air, yet permitting an engineer to get at practically all parts of the engine while in fight. The fuel pipes in the hull of R101 have a total length of over 1,300 feet, the water pipes over 500 feet, and there are over 100 cocks. The joints and cock, presented some dificulties to the designers, but they have been successfully overcome.
