Default Re: Take a gander at this.

Why was the direction of rotation changed?

I don’t know but maybe a reader might inform me. When I crank my Model A the engine rotates in a clockwise direction. I speak about viewing them from the front. Likewise for all the tractors I drove. All the American IH Farmalls, and English Fergusons. They remain the same today. But why do American aeroplanes all rotate anti clockwise with the one exception that I know of. It’s the Garret turbine. There could well be more but they haven’t come to my attention.
