MAYBACH MOTOR COMPANY.

The Maybach Motor Company is situated in Frederichshafen. At present they are not engaged in any aircraft motor work but are devoting their energies to the design and construction of motor cars. Mr. Maybach stated his preference for 12-cylinder dirigible engines, and according to information, he has designed one which he will build at the first opportunity.

The Maybach 6-cylinder war time dirigible, water-cooled power plant is conceded by French engineers and Italian authorities to be the best dirigible engine developed in the world to date. Characteristics of this engine are included in the Maybach hand-book on this type which has been obtained for our Engineering Division.
