Re: Franklin 220 Engines
A 220 in a Citabria?!?
That would be fun but I don’t think you are talking about a 220 in a Citabria... doubt an STC even exists for it...

Re: Franklin 220 Engines
I think the Champion Lancer might have used the 220.

Re: Franklin 220 Engines
Yep. Big difference between the 2A 45-60 HP engine and the 220 which is in the the low 200 HP variant...
Re: Franklin 220 Engines
Curious that a casual search on Google of Franklin aero-engines fails to list a single 0-220 engine. A Youtube video does, however, reveal a Stinson Voyager with the number "220" emblazoned on her cowl. Funny that.

The twin-engine Aeronca 402 Champion Lancer Trainer was factory equipped with two (2) 0-200 Continental engines. It is extremely unlikely that two (2) 6-cylinder PZL (Polish) 0-220 Franklin engines were ever installed in an Aeronca Lancer. In hindsight, it would have been a good idea..
FYI, the original 7ECA Citabria left the factory in 1964 with a Continental 0-200-A. Subsequent models had a Lycoming 0-235-C1. The 7GCAA had a Lycoming 0-320-A2B. There is no record of an aerobatic Citabria powered by a Franklin 0-200 or a PZL Franklin 0-220.
In 1971 Bellanca reintroduced a modernized version of the non-aerobatic 7ACA "Champ" design which made it a variant of the Citabria line. The 7ACA is powered by the two-cylinder Franklin 2A engine of 60 horsepower.; Gross weight is 1,220 lb, empty 750 lb. 71 were produced.
Top mph 91. Cruise mph 86. Stall mph 28. Range 310 statute miles. Initial climb rate 460 fpm. Takeoff run 450'. Landing roll 300'.
In 1975 the government of Poland bought the Syracuse, New York based Franklin Engine Company and moved it to Rzeszów, first under the name PZL-Franklin and later simply PZL-F.
