question about engines

Hi John

I was the primary draftsman for the Thunder Mustang. To date I only
personally know of about 4 of them that are flying. I suspect there
another 4 or 5 I don't know about. From the parts and engines we
manufactured there could be as many as 25 of them flying.

To date the only accident involving injuries that I am aware of was the
crash of the prototype.
Have there been any more accidents?

I have to admit the when we put it paper it was pretty obvious it was a
hot airplane and that people would kill themselves in it. I am bit
surprised it hasn't been worse. But maybe the fact that it is obviously
a hot airplane that deserves respect has contributed to this.

The same engine as in the Thunder Mustang? Sheesh, I know the plane
has eaten some folks' lunches . . . but what a beauty
