Commentary[edit]

Hi there. Sorry, but my english is too bad to edit a serious mistake in this article. There is written:With no common crankshaft it became more practical for all of the accessories to be powered by one engine alone, in this case the rear engine. The supercharger itself used up several hundred horsepower, so the rear propeller delivered considerably less power than the front one. The 803 uses two comletely seperate engines and auxiliaries. Two two-stage-four-speed superchargers, each driven by it's "own" engine, and same for all other auxiliaries. So both engines put out the same power, and were able to work independently from each other. I hope someone can edit it for me. Thanks,--Reibpartner (talk) 09:15, 24 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
