It was my second visit to PFM and I enjoyed it enough to enlist. It was good to see you again Spanner. You got a couple of pix of my back in the DR. 1 close ups, but I got a couple of shots of you too, one also talking to Tom Moore about the engines.
Last fall at Kingsbury was the first time I'd ever seen a running rotary. And I thought Wright Cyclones spewed oil......

Because I'm electronically challenged and can't flippin operate photobucket. I sent a disc to Tom Gaylord but he's not familiar with WIX.

I can't believe I missed this event! I didn't know this was going on. I went to the fall event. I would have been drooling on this old engines. I went up to the Pate Swap Meet in FtWorth the weekend this was going on. Someone had a Hispano-Suiza engine for sale there and I almost fell over from seeing one in person. I don't think I could have survived seeing as many early engines that ya'll got to see. WOW.

Now that is a tough choice that I'm going to have to make. I'll be at one of them for certain.

The Jenny is actually a Canuck, the RCAF version. The only way to tell the diff is the tail shape.
