Well, the lightplane twins were just for fun. They would have had massive
problems with performance and stucture.
The Twin Mustang had, once again, ben pipped at the post and posibly
inxpired by the Germans who did a zwilling" ME 109 as well as an HE 1-11 (
with a fifth engine added in between)

I'll have to look into that.
Here are some pics of the T-Cub and T-Stang.

Yeah, the cub was at a lot of airshows years ago. I saw it a couple of
times. Same guy, i think, did a twin Tri-pacer with a single fuselage
but two engines mounted side by side on the nose swinging overlapping
props.
Someone did a twin Ercoupe back in the fifties and did an aerobatic
airshow routine wiht it for years.
I saw some pics of it performing on the net some time ago..

Yeah, Bertie, it's behind the T-Cub. lol.
Years ago I read about the T-Tri-Pacer. Very interesting stuff
indeed. It was a cheaper twin to get than just buying a regular
twin. I wonder if the FAA would recognize twin time if you flew
them. I suppose they'll have to.

Yeah, I'm sure they would. That cub must have been a mess, though. It's
nearly twice as heavy as a stock cub with half he wing area!

how did I know you were going to reply to that within 5 minutes...
You know, ol bertie boy, it was a nice day today. You should go
outside once and a while. I mean this seriously, obsessing over an
internet discussion group is unhealthy.
