Randy's radial engine B model should really scoot going backward cause the prop rotates to the right looking from the rear of the engine and not as the depiction represents. This is true with both Pratt&Whitney, and Wright Aeronautical engines.

Must be technologically correct you know.

Exactly why he was placed in charge of the project. Experience does have it's merits.

I hope he doesn't get caught. Stealing the nose off a vintage "Corsair" fits the category of "heinous crime".

Here's some pics from the 2010 air races of my friends formula 1 racer, Knotty Girl. For last year he painted her as a tribute to Al Goss and Warlock, the 2004 T-6 Gold Champion. The first photo shows one of the best parts of the races- the smile on the face of a young race fan when they get a chance to sit in one of the racers. Photo 2 is Knotty Girl sitting in front of the Warlock trailer, photo 3 is Knotty Girl on the ramp. Photo 4 is going through tech inspection, the last photo is Knotty Girls' O-200 Continental engine.
