Hi Gang,

    I was surprised and honored to open a package today and find inside a
plaque from Sun & Fun for "Best Auto Engine".  Shows how much the judges
know {:>).  However, just wanted you to know that I think we jointly got
their attention.  Certainly Tracy deserves the lion share of the credit for
his efforts at Sun & Fun and similar fly ins.   Certainly, a number of us
would have had a longer row to hoe without the products that Tracy has
produced and which most of us have in our rotary powered aircraft.

   I also would like to thank, Paul, who (despite his well known views about
certain engine orientations - which will go unmentioned in this e mail {:>))
has promoted the rotary movement with his ideas, research and prod for new
and universal products for matching rotary engines to airframes.

   So I am, again, honored to accept this plaque in behalf of all auto
powered aircraft builders and particularly those of the Rotary persuasion.

Best Regards
