Axial engine
Undid revision 720786946 by 172.56.29.24 (talk) Copyedit (major) removing the phrase 'rather than' makes nonsense of '180 derees'. The point is to compare the radial engine (like spokes).

Chorley
Clarified section on Roland Standish, relationship to Myles Standish (and who he is, for benefit of English readers) and added distance to relationship to 14th Earl of Arundel as I can't find evidence they did more than fight in the same campaign.Tag: Visual edit
