Interesting Britain really stepped on the turd pie when they didn't figure out the square windows on the first commercial jet the Comet was causing them to drop out of the sky due to stress cracks and so forth. At that time in the early to mid 50's they had the lead over everyone including Boeing. It was a sweet looking plane.

Far as I know, it was Gagen, Peacock & Martin. They did have sponsorship from Screaming Yellow Zonkers. I remember those little bitty, teeny weeny yellow outfits Mary & Meg used to wear at the races and remember them handing out boxes of Zonker treats. I don't know what kind of a treat the Screaming Yellow Zonker actually was, never had the courage to try one.

I have one of the little "up up and away" boats. Was one of my Christmas presents under the tree when I was nine I think. First thing I asked, "where is the other engine?" On the bottom of mine it says... Made by K&B Manufacturing. K&B was in Lake Havasu City for many years before moving to California. Still a cool collector item because I think they were made in very limited numbers. Each dealer was limited to only a few and you figure many dealers never bothered to order them. I'll tell you what they did get right on the toy boat... the sponsons. Got those rocker sponsons just like the real one!

That's pretty amazing.....this group can cover anything! It doesn't matter if it's a one of a kind secret engine that ran once in some far away place or a little model boat or just a box of Cracker Jacks.....someone will have some information about the topic at hand and maybe even a picture or two, WOW!

When you finished criticising maybe you can tell us a bit more about Doc Magoons Blue Riband attempt, even if you have to reawaken the "hot multi's" thread.
