I have been thinking of starting a business of selling just engines online. Would you consider such a service?

I go for Rossi, OS and AP myself.

Instead of owning several engines and planes (I have 5 engines and 4 flyable planes) I opted for my own private 9 acre flying field which is out behind our home

Actually I'm a little embarrassed to say that i have just about 300. But I've been collecting for a lot of years, and have probably sold almost 200 over the years. Hey it's a hobby isn't it

I don't want to know how many engines I have. I don't even know if I could find them all

Here is my current small collection.
Can I count my electric motors too? Nah......

Hp .21 VT
Enya .25
GMS .47
O.S. .52 Surpass
Saito .65
O.S. 1.60 FX
ZDZ 80 single

All of these are currently in a plane.

I've owned many others, but I tend to trade and sell a lot.
