Hummm, while I am a cast-in-stone rotary type, I really don't
see any point in throwing stones at those alternate engine types who
prefer pistons. Many smaller airframes simply couldn't use a rotary even
if they wanted to.
My view is that us "Alternative Engine" types all face
the same "hostile" outside world and need to stick together. Certainly we
can (and will) debate the relative merits of each choice, but I certainly feel
that somebody that successfully puts a covair,Subaru, V-6, etc, in an
project and safely gets airborne is a kindred soul.
Now, if the logo has something like an "X" across
a symbol for a certified, expensive and all to prone to cost $$, aircraft
engine, - that - I might could sign on for {:>). But, since I
won't be going to Oshkosh, I guess I don't have to be concerned about it.
Just my viewpoint on the topic FWIW

Ernie: Price is right; you can either ink pen or embroider a big
red X over the pistons, if you so desire. (just a
suggestion.) jofarr, soddy tn
Price is irrelevant. However, red circles with diagonals over
pistons would not only be appropriate but would even be creative. Thank
you.
