Well Bud,

Done did a cartwheel to the right on the wing, the wing from the fuse, part of the fuse went with it (ripped the right side of the fuse assemly) Broke part of the fuse at the base were the stab is and cracked the wing were the wing tube is.Destroyed the wing end / tip. Broke the rudder also. Well ALL is well now rebuilt and have had about 20 some odd flights on it. Flies great at just above idle with the flaps down, put that 182 twin in it. with an 18X6 prop, fast at full throttle

Jim, don't tell us you brought it home in pieces? If so how bad?

Howard.....I may be wrong but I seem to remember at one time Saito had a 120 twin, probably discontinued, I have the O.S. 160 twin in mine with no clearance problems at all.
