Is that so? OK, I was wondering about that too.

Then, what decided between an in-line and a radial engine when they designed these machines? I guess radials were easier to cool but they produced more drag, but I might be wrong.

Wait, I'm not sure those late war Griffons or DB-s ever reached the 2200 HP of a P&W ? So there might be something after all?
