Damn straight! Cool engines. I saw the 2800 at Osh, and heard it run
on "something?"

Any rough idea on what they are getting for those jewels?

By the way, they are not "real" radial engines. They start way too
smoothly, run way too evenly, and leak far too little oil, for that! g


Ow well, can't have everything...

There are a whole bunch of early planes that would make workable
projects, but for the round motors.

My very favorite of all times biplane just happens to be the Boeing
F4B2/Model 100.

It would work real nice at about 7/8 scale with 150 hp...
or maybe a little smaller 3/4 with the 110.
