FFVS J 22
in Detail
The powerplant
As already mentioned, the engine of
the J 22 was Pratt & Whitney Twin Wasp (of either US or Swedish
production), and it is recognizable here by its characteristic layout of
ingition wires. In case of this aircraft, it is actually one of the
"French" engines bought from the Vichy regime! |

exhaust pipe configuration differed between "A" and "B"
models, this being a J 22B. |
The propeller is a license-built Hamilton Standard.

The twin carburettor air intakes
were neatly integrated into the wing roots. |

pipe. Note the weld seams. |
