| Great read.. thanks.. It Turned out a 20 mm knocked two or three cylinders off my engine. That Pratt & Whitney never stopped. I’m telling you, those people deserve a medal for that engine, I’ve never seen one like it.  . |

| The Jug is certainly a very robust plane, no wonder so many pilots rated it as their favourite mount!
