1970
Support and maintenance for ten T53 shaft
engines used as boosters in Deutsche Bahn
locomotives.

blade tip drive of the DO-32 Kiebitz tethered
helicopter, maiden flight 1972. T312 shaft
engine (APU) for the Tornado multi-role
fighter aircraft, first flown in August
1974, serial production 1978. G119S and
G119P transmissions (starboard and port)
