The L-19 was powered by a 470 flat six and The Stinson L-1 was powered by an R-680...but what does any of this have to do with the Continental 0-170 I mentioned?
If you have a fave that's different, that's fine, please state it, but why are you connecting it to my post?

To be fair, you did quote him while making your own, separate point. When someone quotes me, I naturally think that they are replying to me.

If it had "ZERO" to do with his post, why quote it at all?

Also, the "fucking" stuff doesn't roll well with "calm down". I didn't see him cussin' at you, y'know.
