Yes Paul.  I understand the rotary emphasis.  But I think you are a
pilot as well and Hoover has set a standard in airplane stick and rudder
as no other has.

Did you get page one on the McCulloch radial?

Also, the narrative on Toyo Kogyo was very enjoyable to read.  I was
with Honda Motor Co. for 28 years and found the same kind of dedication
with the japanese engineers at Honda.  In the mid sixties Mr. Honda told
me that one of his goals was to see a Honda turbine engine at some point
in the future.  Honda died in the early nineties but his people are
carrying on and a Honda fanjet has been flying for several years.  A
primary design goal was to get the specific fuel consumption to the same
level as a current piston engine.

Yes I understand about Bob Hoover. He kept his airplanes at Torrance where
I learned to fly and kept my airplane for years but we must draw the
rotary line somewhere.

Yes I got page one. Thanks.
I am going to put that narrative on Toyo Kogyo on the web site any minute.

I love that Honda Odyssey we just bought. Great minivan.
