BMW 132 From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The BMW 132 was a nine-cylinder radial aircraft engine produced by BMW starting in 1933.
Contents
The 132 found widespread use in the transport role, remaining the primary powerplant of the Junkers Ju 52 for much of its life, turning the BMW 132 into one of the most important aeroengines for civilian aircraft during the 1930s.
Numerous pioneering flights were undertaken with the BMW 132. The most impressive was the first direct flight from Berlin to New York in a Focke-Wulf 200 S-1 Condor equipped with four BMW 132 engines. It covered the distance to New York in 24 hours and 57 minutes on 10 August 1938.
