My first was Cox Pee Wee with red anodised tank, later Cox Black Widow in my first "Pilot" danish stunt U/C plane. The Cox engines was cheaper than big brother engines. After miscellaneous Cox engines then i bought my first Enya 35 TV and my first 4 stroke engine OS 40 FS. My first diesel engine was David-Andersen Tellus 2.5 and David-Andersen Drabant 2.5 in same time. My first converted 4 stroke diesel OS 40 FS engine in 1997.
Before i bought the first engine, i saw the neighbour had the Graupner "Topsy" with Cox Babe Bee in 1977, after my first experience with his modelairplane, i got interest to have modelairplanes and model engines as hobby. Much later i started to make and repaired these model engines when i bought my first lathe Emco Unimat 3 in 1989.
