<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Jay first: I've used the Webra 1.20 2 stroke,
and while it's a good engine, mine is worn out. That doesn't rule out a 2
stroke, but I've always felt that the 4 stroke "followed" what I wanted for
pattern somewhat better than the 2 stroke. But, no, I'm not locked in to a
4 stroke.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Tony:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Actually, I have the best possible engine
now. Buff Miller who was flying his Sport at Green Sea with a Y.S. 110,
came up to me after the 3rd round, and said "You're definitely outperforming
me." Which I was, after observing Buff's flight. Most of my Pattern
is flown at a quite reduced setting, but I have LOTS more under my left thumb
solely for maximum vertical figures. My sole concern is that a 20 year old
engine, (I bought it in 1989, when they were first introduced) can't last
forever, and parts can become a problem. I don't want to ground the
airplane for want of a powerplant suitable for Pattern. So, I'm gathering
pertinent information ahead of time. Actually, it's been running perfectly
for years; I just know that, (like me<G>) it can't go on forever,
and I want to be ready with information as to where to go when I need
to.</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Gentlemen, thanks for your input. It is
definitely noted, and will be condsidered.</FONT></DIV>

1983, when I also placed 2<SUP>nd</SUP>. After the NATS I got a call
from the nice people at Byron Fuels…. They wanted me to fly their
fuel. I explained to them that I appreciated their interest in me, but
that I was very happy with Morgan/Cool Power fuels. They persisted in
telling me that they had the BEST fuel on the market and that it was superior
to Cool Power. Well, I had to take exception to that. <BR><BR>You
see, in the 2 ˝ years leading up to the 1990 NATS, I never lost a single ROUND
at a pattern contest in Expert class! I flew in 10-15 contests each
year. In that period of time, I had not changed a single part in my YS
.60RE engine, other than a glow plug. The engine never quit, was 110%
reliable. So, I explained to the Byron folks, your fuel CAN’T be any
better! It MIGHT be as good, but can’t be
better….<o:p></o:p></SPAN></FONT></P>

I've been flying a Piedmont sport that tips the scales at 9# even.
Powering it with a Y.S. 1.20 FS, and it's now 20 years old. Runs fine,
but maybe not forever. It turns an APC at 8800+ and offers plenty of
performance.</SPAN></FONT><o:p></o:p></P></DIV>
