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. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:55:41 PM PST US From: "Alex Frizzell" Subject: Re: Tailwind-List: 160 HP 0-320-H2AD 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.
