Yeah JD.... I've had some of those same thoughts... one of the things that
prompted the question was a new Crocker engine being built by a friend of
mine...
As for the Ryan... I agree it's pretty... but the Stagger wing Beach... or
even better the Bee Gee Racer... Virtually any of the sea plane racers....
and last but not least... ( okay this is two or more ... but you get the
point ).... how bout a P 51, Ah-1 Cobra ( hey I flew every model of
these ).... Or a Lear...
You absolutely got the point thou JD.... I loved the 30's junk... But was
that truly the golden age? As for Bikes... don't we have more independant
builders today then ever? ( not that I particularly like what they are
doing )
