Poor old girl needs some work. No ailerons the fabric tail is rotted off and it’s sunk in the dirt up to the axles. The de ice boots rotted off in places too

I'm in Virginia visiting my daughter and yesterday I went to the USMC museum on I95 at Quantico Va. Amazing place, spent 4 hrs there and only made it to the Korean war before it closed. I need to go back

I've been working on my 67 SkiDoo so I can play with it this winter. Someone posted this on the vintage sled site. Amazing

In 1968 my dad bought a Polaris Mustang in Abercrombie North Dakota. It had a 303 Wankel engine that never quit. Bogey wheels, springs and skis busted constantly, but that Wankel kept on running. We laugh about it now because my brothers and I could not catch up to a jack rabbit with that mustang.

North of me in Salisbury NY is a group of guys that only run rotary engine sleds, most of them Artic Cats

Glenn

 

[mixer]

We had a few cats around that had rotary also. They were always referred to as a Harley Davidson of snowmobile’s because the Wankel’s sound so different than all the other screamers.

Anyone doing any flying this weekend? I'm going to be out flying around tomorrow in my Maule probably over at Saranac Lake. No skis on it though.
