If you have the time at DIA (Denver International Airport) take a 

stroll along the bridge between the main terminal and concourse A. 

(Most folks take the train, and don't even realize the bridge 

exists.) There is a display of about 50 (maybe 100) fully-operational 

scale engines, mostly aircraft engines, some exact scale replicas, 

even one Wankel! The scale Continental 85 was particularly interesting.



	If you are just there for a connection, keep in mind that you will 

have to pass though security to get back to the concourses. (Ugh) Be 

sure you have enough time to marvel over these engines AND go back 

through security.



	They will be on display until September 10th.

Thanks for the tip.  I would love to see them, but I don't get to Denver.  I

looked them up and found some information here

They come from a museum in Tempe, AZ who has a site here

I have been wanting to build some model radial engines for years, but don't

have the time.
