I'm pretty sure it's a lycoming with the 180 tail feather mod. I'd drop kick a nun for one of those!

Nicer than the one I flew...it was my second flying job, an operator in the back facing aft and a bird (magnetometer) under the belly on a wire flying grids. I managed to lose the bird to the only tree within 100 miles, spent an ugly hour in the ops manager's office... :oops:

I sell gascolators to Steve Noyes.... The STC holder of the SuperDog... I believe he is installing carberated 550's in them with 185 tails... Looks like a nice machine...

Hi Mau Mau,

Excellent. I fly out of 7B3 and often stop by 2B2 to practice landing on pavement with the Cub. Great little airport. And the runway is actually pointed into the wind on most days, unlike Hampton... :lol:

I'll have to check out the website. Thanks.
