Paul,
You mentioned that the Rotary Engine newsletter was giving an award at
Oshkosh for the best engineered rotary installation. When I mentioned having
it given formal recognition , I was referring to something like these awards
that are publicized by EAA. (see
http://www.airventure.org/2001/events/awards.html ) I don't know how you get
the Rotary Engine Newsletter engineering excellence award on the list, but
it is a thought.
These are awarded during evening programs at the Theater in the woods,
Just a thought

I will have to look into this when I get time. I just cleaned Robin's
1983 RX7 to enter it into the competition tomorrow at seven stock.
I think it should win :-)
