Paul - I think I have mentioned this new mag before. Just got my third issue
(March April) and it is great as usual.
However one thing would upset you - there was a teaser on the contents page
"Bob White installs a Mazda Rotary engine
in his BD-4" with a small pix - page 8. Page 8 indeed has an article on
BD-4's - but no rotary. I think Bob is on
your list, and he is listed as one of the authors - you have to give him
heck.

Sorry Vance but nothing under my control.  My only contribution was the
photo. :)  The story was aimed at the BD-4, not the rotary engine, but
the good news is the editor (who seems like a really nice guy) says he
would like to do an article on my rotary installation after I get it
flying.

I hope to accomodate him after I get final 10 % (90%) done.  I just
spent the afternoon under the control panel in a cold and windy
hangar replacing a terminal block that had disintegrated.  One of the
disadvantages of of a 27 year old airplane and not included in my time
line.

Hi Paul.

I haven't taken many of the engine lately, but here's one showing
Bruce's intake manifold on the engine (and Jerry's exhaust below).

Looking good Bob. That white powder coat on the intake manifold looks great.
