Default RE: Mr. Supertigre flew away

A very sad day...[] As I was reading this post I looked across my desk and found the engine pictured. It has been there for a month or two. When life gets a little to busy and I need a reminder of the simpler times of my youth, I pull out an engine from years ago. Often I find myself holding a Super Tigre. It takes me back to a time 35 years ago pouring over the engine case at Campbell's Hobby House dreaming of what I could build with the shiny new motors in front of me. Of course paper route money didn't buy many engines and my dreaming of what could be often followed me from the hobby shop to school or throwing papers.

I think I'll hold this motor a little this evening... just for old time sake.
