Just out of curiosity...and now that Dave has passed on ;-)...how many
with Chevy power? (He had a pathological resentment of General Motors,

Strangely enough, I don't find any registered with Chevrolet engines. Those
that are flying are probably listed with just an experimental engines or have
the field blank.



Don't forget - Numerous Chevy CORVAIR engines flying

I do see six listed with Oldsmobiles.
