Default RE: what 30cc plane do you own?

I'm happy to see the increase in small gassers and planes for them. Though some small glow still exist in my hanger, my interest niche has swung to the 1.20 size planes both glow and gas but 30cc fits as well. Currently flying a Akrobat II with Saito 1.25, a Hanger 9 PT-19 with Enya 1.20, a Phaeton 90 with G-20, Ultra Stick Lite with G-20 and a Taylorcraft with G-23.

With full retirement getting closer, a few planes and engines have been laid back among them another Ultra Stick Lite, two 1/4 Cubs, a Yak 54, SpacewalkerII, Great Planes Super Stearman, and the plans, wood and parts to scratch built a 1929 Travel Air 6000 to 98". Engines on hand are a G-26, MLD 28, Aero 28, Saito 182 twin and Ryobi 31. So, everything that is in the future fits the 30cc size range and I now prefer gas for easy starting, easy clean up and fuel economy.
