Vance and I are developing criteria for judging
alternative engines at air shows. Namely Camarillo CA
July 23.

Here is our preliminary list

Distance flown in.
Number of hours.
Innovation.
Motor mount design.
cooling system design.
workman ship.
appearance.
degree of difficulty.
performance

Did I forget anything Vance?
Can anybody add to this list?

How about firewall-forward cost?- 

Well maybe. One can spend a whole heck of a lot of money converting a car V8 into
a racing V8. Forged crank $3,000, forged rods $1,000, aluminum block $5,000 etc. etc..

Yes..... perhaps cost.
