Has anyone read the latest "Flying" magazine?  Peter Garrison's column about rotary engines in airplanes ends with this:

 

"I hope that the combined efforts and ingenuity of these amateurs will settle, once and for all, the question of the rotary's suitability for airplanes.  I suspect that they will find in its favor.  In the meantime they remain the noblest and most daring of homebuilders, hairy-chested heroes for whom the evidence that their latest idea was not a good one may well come in the form of an engine failure just after takeoff.  They continue undaunted, and their numbers increase.  The world owes them a debt of gratitude."

 

Amen - Thanks to all of you!
