'Folks, Maybe we're looking at this the wrong way. Instead of thinking what kind of airplane it fits on, what kind of engine fits on that mount? What radials exist?

'All, I was lucky enough to attend the fly-in at Lee Bottom in Southern Indiana. It was worth the 110-mile one-way drive just to see the two Fairchild 24Ws that showed up.
