It looks as though Teledyne Continental Motors are running into bad times at present with the economic depression...>>>

Lay-offs and short-time working, end of 2009-2010!

I wonder what major differences there are, between the Teledyne Continental and Avco/Textron Lycoming motors, for similar engine sizes, for replacement purposes?

I suppose there could now be a Lycoming Motor hiding under the bonnet of the C150 sporting the "RR" insignia on the outside!... :o...(must have a peek at the Rocker-box covers!)...;)... ;D...!

I wonder if the original Teledyne Continental Radial engine is still available, and being fitted as replacement, when required, on the Boeing Stearman?

The Lycoming O- 235 (100-135 HP) engines are fitted to the Cessna 152.....>>>

I would think it's more likely to be the original US-manufactured Continental. There should still be plenty of these engines & parts available even if the company is going through hard times at the moment. They're fully interchangeable with the RR variant which would avoid certification problems with engines from a different manufacturer.

Let's not forget this little beauty..

It's got the interior space and pilot visibility of the Tomahawk.. and is probably the "funnest" airplane to just go punch holes in the sky..
