    The first 182's were straight tail like the one shown. RNAC had one, VH RNT. Done in 2 greens If I recall correctly. A Percival Procter used to fly the Newspapers from Sydney to Newcastle back in the days when it operated out of District Park. The distinct Noise of the Gipsy 6 Heralded it's arrival. It flew a bit faster than most small planes of the day. Nev

    It's not unusual to use two where one larger one is inconvenient. IF you want to know how effective they are, measure the radiator OUTLET temp compared with inlet. Nev

    It wiped out the Hopes and lifestyle of many People. Started in the in 1929 in the USA. Some people actually Profit at such times. The stock Market is a Gambling House. Shareholders are the suckers if they don't have Inside Knowledge. US politicians are Buying or Unloading stock that they are passing Laws on.. It's a stacked Deck. Nev

    A lot of Imported cars did not have big enough radiator capacity for competition or really hot days (Australian Conditions)and if the area couldn't be increased they had to be thicker and I used fork Lift ones. The LADA Niva had a sturdy radiator. You need that on outback roads so they don't crack on the sidestraps. Also rubber Mounted adequately. None of this is rocket science. Where there was A V8 VERSION or one for the Automatic trans just use that. Oil coolers can go under the base of the spin on oil filter. No pipes at all. Nev

    Never having to warm the engine up would save time. Engine reliability should be better. How about for Powered Gliders? Nev

    When it's aircooled you don't Have all this problem with rubber PIPES, coolant and pressure caps, pumps and leaks. (dare I mention). Then you can FLY in the AIR. Nev
