I am sure that someone besides me has noticed this but when I finally got around to looking at the magneto on the Jabiru, what a surprise to see that the design was the same as used on the Model T Ford.  My Ford will be 97 years old in March and as far as I know the magneto as never been touched other than to have the magnets re-magnetized.  This says a lot about the reliability of the design.

 Hi Walt.

     Interesting info.  Just wondering if your  Model T was the first car you bought "new".  

 Have a Great New Year,

 Buz

Buz,  

   

Actually I am the fourth owner.  My father was the third, a friend of the family was the second and I don’t know who the first was.  Not that old yet.  However, my grandfather did not give up flying until he was 91.

That's super, Walt.  Of course I was kidding about you buying it  new.  How is your new jet flying?  When you get a chance write up some  of your thoughts on the build process and flying observations for us to share  with others in the newsletter.  In fact, a great photo would be the "T"  along side the Lightning.  Kind of a reverse photo of Nick and my 'Vetts  beside the Demo Lightning.  I would really like that for the  newsletter.  When ever you get the chance, just send it directly to my  email address.

 Thanks,

 Buz

 Yep, a photo with the T and the Lightning together showing how far  personal transportation has come in 100 years is what would be appreciated for  the newsletter.  (I think I remember the first Ford Model T came out in  late 1908 - however, I was NOT alive when that happened).
