designed and manufactured for the benefit of all of rotary enthusiasts

Lamar, Jerry Hey, Fred Breese, I neglected to mention one of the more
hairy chested
pioneers....Tracy Crook, with his electronic ignition and of course,
excellent redrives. I humbly
appologize for forgetting to include Tracy in my short list of rotary
pioneers. Sorry, Tracy.

I was so impressed with that description, I went out an purchased a copy of
FLYING magazine so I can prove to my great grandchildren that I was indeed a
"hairy chested Hero" back in the "old" days.

BTW Peter Garrison in the article could not understand why Toyota and Honda
would be interested in the aircraft engine market. Just a few words. PR prestige
and advertising advantages. Ford/Mazda continues to sit on it. Apparently it has not
dawned on them yet.
