OLD-TIMERS - 2003/09

IN 1938 ALBERT J. Ward paid $2 for a used
GHQ engine. He installed it in a Flying
Quaker, where it served as an excellent nose
weight. (The GHQ was a low-priced engine
whose main feature was that it would not run.
A safe product, there was virtually no chance
of sticking your fingers in a spinning
propeller.)

WHAT DO YOU get with an Old-Timer (OT) columnist whose
primary interest is Control Line (CL)? Someone who misidentifies
a Flying Quaker as a Red Zephyr (on page 151 in the March issue).
One positive result was that I received numerous E-mails and letters
correcting the error—which would seem to indicate that people are
at least reading this stuff.
