Thank you Husa, so many interesting black/white photos from 20 century.

Got any details on the air-cooled single ? Thanks.
Two-strokes that fell from the sky.
The Ukrainians tear down the engine from one of the downed Iranian kamikaze Shahed 136 drones, which the russian terrorists army attacks Ukrainian cities. They tries to identify the manufacturers of the parts. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OPDpaDJhi3U

Unbelievable holiday discovery in the beautiful mountainous area of Sardinia near Pedra Longa.
A lithographic quarry, called "Su Stabilimentu" opened in 1909 and operated until 1914 and this engine was used to transport the extracted slabs of limestone by cable car to a dock, about 128 meters down.
One cylinder two stroke diesel engine with direct injection, two reed valves houses on the oposite sides on bottom of the crankcase for fresh air. Aluminium piston clear visible through transfer port, cooling intake pipe mounted under exhaust. Except numbers, the only possible identification logo is "GG" letters. I tried to ask the seller of the bookstore in Baunei town about the engine, but he only guessed that maybe it was German.
Indeed, sometimes strange things happen.
Ahh, it will be a GasGas surely, they use that notation on their barrels, heck my Trials bike does now I think of it.
Don't you look at my accountant.
He's the only one I've got.
Nice comparison, but similarity with Gas Gas only in letters. And interesting, that GG symbol casted only on the reed valves covers.
Add map of engine location if anyone travels here.
That's the exhaust port, not that it makes a difference, and I was wrong about my trials bike. Just one G. Didn't dig my Enduro bike out of the dark for just a joke![]()
Don't you look at my accountant.

While looking for the GG engine, found interesting old books.
Magnesium powder and small pieces of silk for scavenging visualization.
