RE: How did YOU get your start in the hobby?
I think a lot of us are proud of you also. Allison V12 eh. My father could take that engine apart in his sleep. He worked for Curtiss Wright during WWII and was all over the world. The old Allison came into it's own when they installed them in the P-38 with the General Electric turbo chargers, or were they super chargers?
As they say "You go girl."
