would this work good in a model airplane

Absolutely! However, I doubt that it would ever leave the ground.

I believe this design is destined to be a stationary unit.

Neat. Not very noisy for the size, the Witte is almost silent.

Oddest engine I've seen, and I've seen some odd steam engines.

Gentlemen please

on opposed piston engines, fairbanks and morse for example, they are classed as 2 strokes even though each cylinder has 2 pistons.

one revolution is 2 strokes, thats why the fairbanks engine is called a 2 stroke as u get power for every 2 strokes of each crank.
