Description Operating as a small subsidiary of Auburn Auto Company, Lycoming produced its first aeronautical engine the R-680, in 1929. The engine’s straightforward design and overall reliability established the company as a leader in the design and manufacture of aircraft engines. As a result the Aviation Corporation acquired Lycoming in 1932 to add its engines to the corporation’s range of aeronautical products which included Stinson aircraft and Smith variable-pitch propellers. The R-680 series powered various models of the Stinson Reliant cabin plane of the 1930s and the Boeing Kaydet trainer of World War II. Overall Lycoming manufactured over 26,000 R-680 engines. This R-680-BA, an early model in the R-680 series, first appeared in 1932.
