YS Engines

[Mark Hunt]

Simplicity is not a word you want attached to your high-tech pattern aircraft anyway....

  Jim,
  I'll bet by now you can assemble and disassemble the 15 moving parts that make up just the head of that engine with your eyes closed.  It's a zen like procedure that brings comfort and joy.  
    My engine only has one part (glow plug) and it doesn't move.  while you're doing that I'll have to find something else to tinker with....[where's the wife.....]

    Guess I am getting soothed then. I just started the 3rd rebuild on a YS 140L.It has 450 flights on it.

Um, why?
