i bought a wrecked Acro II last weekend in central Michagan.
The plane lost power and landed hard on an upslope.
The prop hit the ground in a horiz. position, i looked at the engine
unassembled
and think it would be a great buy for a Tailwind.
It was overhauled by Wag Aero and had 370 hrs SMOH when it crashed in
Aug 2005.
No carb or mag.
The owner does not want to ship it so it would have to be picked up, i
could help ship it
but i am 200 miles away myself.
i was thinking the Michigan guys might want to take a look at it.
He wants $2,500 for it.
i attached a photo of the plane wreck.
Dennis in Chicago
PS, i was all ready to go back and pick it up but my Wife noted that
i already have 2 1/2 biplanes in the garage and an engine in the
basement.

Dennis, I was told that the "H" series engines had a large hump on the
top of the front that made it an undesirable engine for the tailwind
because it would not fit under the cowl.
