Default GP GEE BEE THREAD!!!

Hi guys,
I want to know about your Great Planes Gee Bees!!!
When you got it.
What engine you mounted,
Flying weight,
CG
and most importantly, whether you still have it or not!
Also, if you crashed it, after how many flights and how...

This info would help me alot.

Im getting one of those, and I'd like to keep it light. Im going to go with a YS 110, I think it should have plenty of power and with a weight thats reasonably less than the OS 120 I think i'll be able to keep the wing loading to a minimum.
Any theories? advice or comments?

I hear of alot of guys overpowering them with 150,s 180's it sounds good, I'd love all that power too.
Just the weight of the GP Gee Bee is my concern.

Teach me the way sensei!
