Harlequin;

Looks like a Lycoming. One of the last true piston aircraft engine producers.

Most small aircraft piston engines are air cooled flat 4 and 6 engines.....

Lycoming and Continental both....Rolls Royce even made them under lisence over here.

Now how cool would that be to have a Rolls flat six.....
except it redlines at something like 2500 rpm....

The view from the top of Mt. Whitney looking west, towards Sequoia National Forrest...

The Grand Canyon...

Some gratuitous Porsche pics...

My niece wanting to help me with my engine drop & clutch replacement. She was so sad when I told her it was broken.

Brian,
You must have some training in photography. I have used your '930 with clouds' photo as my desktop image in the past!
And that one with your niece could be on the cover of Parent's magazine! Very nice work-

I got almost that same pout from my 47 year old when I told her I was considering selling the SC.

Great pics by the way.

Brian, those are awesome shots. Almost as nice as that car, which, due to the skid marks, looks like you've been practicing Dukes of Hazard parking manouevers.

I assume the one inside is a Blackhawk (SR-71)? Too bad they let it go!

What you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul!
