Abstract
We investigate the curvature of Eschenburg spaces with respect to two different metrics, one constructed by Eschenburg and the other by Wilking. We show that, with precisely one exception, that Wilking's metric on an Eschenburg space of cohomogeneity at most two is almost positively curved. This provides the first infinite family of almost positively curved examples since Wilking first introduced his construction. In addition, we completely characterize the curvature of every Eschenburg space with respect to Eschenburg's metric.
