Those are great engine finds when they're good runners for those low prices. Gets a guy flying with Classic equipment for a lot less than the NIB collectors prices. I started out using old engines given to me and they are often times good runners.

I started the post with the thought that maybe one of the guys buying the new YS 60 or a YS engine collector would like to get a bid in on what could be one of YS first 60 pressurized engines. It was also for those who have never seen/knew of this engine. I've only seen an old black and white drawing/Ad a long time ago but never saw the engine until now.

You are right about the used engine being a good way for a person to get into flying classic pattern cheaply. I think you can still get a new 61 from out of Asia for under $100 or a guy could pick up a good used engine and save an extra $20 - $30 and put the saving towards a Blue Jay kit or building supplies. Here's two I picked up not long ago if anyone is interested. The Kraft may look a little rough but it was well cared for and you need a prop to turn it over. The Webra I won't see for another two weeks or so but my daughter states she can't turn it over by hand.
