Hi MikeThats the model I was looking at. I talked with them at SNF and OSH a couple of years ago and have been watching them since. I got a bit of bad news about them last year, but they seem to have things worked out a bit on that front. Do you remember the harley engine down on the other end of the field at Brodhead? That was another good installation..Dick N. ----- Original Message -----

There was a little biplane at Brodhead that had one of those Harley engines. Itwas called a Snyder Baby Bomber (I think), and was owned by the late Denny Trone,(again, I think). I watched it taxi towards the runway once, but the enginestalled part way, and had to be pulled back to the hangar. Not sure if it'sstill there.Bill C.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ttachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/brod ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Dick's two cylinder Harley engine

About five years ago at the Dayton Air Show a University Engineering Class broughta 1905 Wright Flyer replica with a Twin Cam 88. It too had the balanced (softtail ) engine. I'm sure they flew it at Dayton and I think it was at Oshkoshthe next year.http://www.usuwrightflyer.org/news/2003 ... sltDanRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________
