Gustav Otto
Gustav Otto (12 January 1883 – 28 February 1926) was a German aircraft and aircraft-engine designer and manufacturer. Otto was born in Cologne to Nikolaus August Otto, the founder of N. A. Otto & Cie. and inventor of the four-stroke internal combustion engine. It is therefore regarded that his interest in engines, specifically aircraft and the manufacture thereof, was something he inherited from his father at an early age. ==Early life== Otto was regarded as successful and career-minded, and moved in elevated social circles. He attended a higher secondary school in Cologne, and had internships at machine tool manufacturers. Later, he attended the Technical Colleges in Hanover, Karlsruhe and Munich for further engineering study.〔BMW Historical Archives, www.BMWGRoup.com〕 He is believed to have remained in Munich after completing his studies to co-found the Bayrische Autogarage Company. Having a famous father, Gustav was driven to prove himself. However, like many sons of famous fathers, Gustav had a difficult time getting out from under his father's long shadow. Therefore he was prone to bouts of depression, which affected his work.〔Kiley, D. "Driven:Inside BMW, the Most Admired Car Company in the World" p.53; Wiley 2004 ISBN 0471269204〕
