Hey Tim...

Will actually use a Rear Exhaust engine mounted inverted so the pipe will run down the tunnel...When setting up as a Tricycle gear(as it should be..he he)...I think the nose retract will be slightly scooted off center just a tad and you will use a header which will hook around it...(see photos below) (note: These are just pics I've collected...I think some are of Nathans airplane...I'm not sure who's that Blue and yellow one is)

It is indeed an Atlanta 60..."Back in the day" I have read the engine of choice was the YS 60...That was apparently a sweet set-up as I understand...I'll more than likely be running an OS 61 RF-P or a YS 61LS in mine...Not sure just yet...

Kinda on that note...I have a little story:
I bought a used YS60 engine that was going to be slated for my Atlanta...I got it from RazorRCU via the RCU MarketPlace...You guys may know of Razor from these forums?? Although I don't know him personally...He seems like a really nice guy...I think he's active in some other RCU forums as well...I think he kinda likes the idea of Ballistic Pattern...In fact his signature says something like "Bringing Ballistic Pattern back to Southern California"...He lives in Ramona CA...

So...I converse with him a bit via e-mail about sending payment...A little chit chat...He always replied very promptly...I had sent a money order out to him...So on the day I expected it to arrive..I messaged him to see if he got it...No reply...Huh...No problem...I get busy too...So I waited a couple days or a week...No engine...So I send another e-mail...Again...No Reply....Hummmmm...I'm thinking this is a little strange...I start to get a little worried that something may have happened...In the mean time...Every day that goes by...I expect to see the engine on the porch when I get home from work...But alas..No engine...

Come to find out...While I'm worrying about this little dinky RC Engine...He and His family have been in the Midst of the California Wild Fires!! The day I checked the Google Wildfire Map...The area around and including Ramona, CA was The Absolute biggest Red Spot on the map...They were under a mandatory evacuation...

Soo...I'm a little "Miffed" at myself...I feel I was being a little too concerned about something that..Really didn't matter...I was disappointed everyday I didn't see the engine on my porch...Meanwhile...There were folks forced to leave their homes not knowing what..If anything...They will return too when they get to go back??

As I understand it from the news...They may be able to go back to Ramona by now...I don't think they have water or other utilities yet??

I see that Razor has made a post in another section of RCU so it appears he's OK...But that was last week...

So I just wanted to say to all you guys out there dealing with that stuff...Be Safe...And I'm thinking about you...Hope you all are alright...

I think I'll remain miffed at myself for a while...I think I got a little "perspective"...So I may not have a YS60 for my Atlanta...That is A-OK...I just want those folks to be safe...

Good Luck to you Guys...

Chuck
