The Rolls Royce Gnome Aircraft Engine

The Gnome is a helicopter or turbo-prop free-turbine turbo-shaft engine developed by de Havilland using a General Electric T58, for which they had a production licence for, as a starting point. Since being first run in 1959 as the de Havilland Gnome, company take-overs have resulted in the engine also being marketed as the Bristol Siddeley Gnome between 1961 and 1966, and from 1966 to date, the Rolls Royce Gnome.
