Which engine manufacturer provides the aircraft's engine?

Which engine manufacturer provides the aircraft's engine?

• A. Continental Motors
• B. Lycoming Engines
• C. Pratt & Whitney
• D. Avco Lycoming

Answer: (D)

The key idea is identifying who builds the engine installed on the aircraft. In many light general aviation planes, the engine comes from Lycoming Engines. Historically, Lycoming was part of Avco and marketed under the Avco Lycoming name, so you’ll see the brand Avco Lycoming in older documentation and manuals. That makes this option the correct match for the manufacturer of the aircraft’s engine. Continental Motors is a different piston-engine maker, Pratt & Whitney focuses on larger engines and jet/turbofan lines, and Avco Lycoming is essentially Lycoming Engines under the Avco corporate branding, which is why it correctly identifies the engine’s producer.
