The Finch’s engine is back from overhaul. The 5-cylinder R-55 engine arrived at the hangar just the other day, nestled safely in a crate. With a shiny new paint job on the crankcase and cylinders, the Kinner practically lept out of the box, so eager was it for a reunion with the Hartland Finley Finch, which sits with arms outstretched. The Finch should be back in service in the next couple weeks. Watch out for the yellow bullet in the skies over the Ottawa valley!
