• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

The Ongoing Mystery Aircraft Thread Part Deux.

The very first Snow (S-1) with flat" engine and pilot first, then hopper con figuration. Later the aircraft received a 220hp Continental W670 radial engine. The S-2 and S-2A were the first production models and the S-2B model introduced the later generally accepted form of hopper first, then the pilot. And of course we know where Leland Snow's 1953 activities in Texas led to.
