Highflyer Shop Shark H Joined: Feb 2003 Posts: 452 Calgary, Alberta	Let's see.... Piston? No real favorite, but the Max Wedge looks pretty cool. Love my 216! (RR Merlin, but I'll never own one) Turbine? P&W 123. Bullet-proof and dependable up to 140% rated torque pluss awhole bunch (gauge stops at 140) Straight jet? PW JT8D. Developes power AFTER shedding a bearing through the turbines! (Seen it) Both of the above have carried my butt through thick and thin. Current fleet (subject to change w/o notice) \'49 GMC 3/4-Ton , 60 Austin Healey Frog-eye Sprite (some assembly required), 2011 Dodge Avenger, 2015 Jeep Cherokee. No, they don't all run. My other ride is a (B737)no, (B767)no, A320.... Update... was Embraer E190, now Boeing B787. Knowledge is a wonderful thing, but ignorance means you don't know you can't do something.
