This is not to say that I'm not interested in backwards rotation
rotary engines.  I think for a twin tractor/pusher airplane having
one of the engines rotate opposite from the other would be worth
considering.

I wonder if the best way to make one run backwards is to actually
build mirrored end housings - taking the power from the other
side of the rotors - making the front the back.

Seems like it would be less work to make a "reversing rotation" PSRU.
