Hispano Suiza's aeronautical innovations uncovered in new SAE book Hispano Suiza in Aeronautics: Men, Companies, Engines and Aircraft is an in-depth study covering a vast period in the history of the Spanish and French aircraft industry (1913-1967) and it offers insight into Hispano Suiza's significant achievements. Hispano Suiza, however, embarked on other activities of considerable industrial, commercial, and strategic importance - notably aviation engines produced in Spain and France, and aircraft constructed in Spain. The luxury automobiles made at the Hispano Suiza factories in Barcelona and Paris during the 1920s and 1930s come to mind to automotive historians and car collectors. www.sae.org /news/releases/suiza.htm   (395 words)

Guardian Unlimited The Guardian Dinky and perky Hispano-Suizas made Rolls-Royces seem cheap and even lacklustre. And, whereas you would need a crane that can lift a train to carry the Hispano away from an illegal parking bay, the Smart could be picked up and pocketed by a passing toddler. Both smidgenly Smart (not a car, I feel, for revolutionary artists and great dictators) and heroic Hispano are capable of 120mph. www.guardian.co.uk /wheels/story/0,3605,1269882,00.html   (901 words)

CanadianDriver: Motoring Memories - Hispano-Suiza Some of these are the Duesenberg SJ from America, the 12-cylinder Rolls-Royce Phantom III from Britain, the supercharged Mercedes-Benz SSKL from Germany, the huge Bugatti Royale from France, the Isotta-Fraschini from Italy, and last but not least, the big Hispano-Suiza that had Spanish origins but was built in France. French air hero Georges Guynemer not only drove a Hispano-Suiza car, but also amassed his 53 "kills" in Hispano powered SPAD airplanes, before being lost in 1917. Alas, Birkigt's overhead cam had given way to overhead valves, and although the V-12 was quieter, it was not regarded by Hispano purists with quite the same awe as was the H6. www.canadiandriver.com /articles/bv/hispano.htm   (819 words)
