Sort of begs the question about reliability!
All of the "i would rather push my Harley than ride a Jap bike" I lived through the 1970's Harleys sucked. Jap bikes ran great.
Well tough guys, you push your airplane.
I will drive my Suzuki or Yamaha or whatever. Each of which start on demand.
Harley lovers can try once again to explain the fascination with low income, high crime and STD's

I love the radial engine.
Lets be honest, quality is what I am questioning.
For the record my family will not fly or ride on a Harley.
And if it helps to confuse people, I am a Green Beret with a Bronze Star.
(Sad that I have to qualify myself, but Harley quality sucks, and Harley loyalty lives)
Be upset if you want, but I will gladly trade Harley Davidson and all it means for either Toyota or BMW.

No, I'd rather walk thank you.

Well, I'm not a fancy Green Beret with a Bronze Star who doesn't fly, but I do believe I'd check the plane over and judge its airworthiness for myself. If I liked what I saw, then yes, I'd fly it. Of course, I'm only a retired colonel from the USAF with, among others, a puny little Air Force Cross.

I wouldn't unless it was Japanese. But I actually saw on tv a guy that put a Harley motor in his plane; the prop was belt driven and everything. He seemed to have fun flying it.

Guess no ones seen a radial engined airplane, basically three Harley type engines together. Just a little to much stereotyping
To answer your repugnant question, yes I would, at least I could work on it.

Is that a question or a rant? Doesn't that rant belong in the motorcycle section? It has nothing to do with aircraft.

Yeah, that's just what we need. A overpriced, loud airplane that has a bunch of 60 year olds trying to re-live their misspent youth.

Problem is that there is no demand for biplane airliners these days. However, I'm sure that the novelty market would make their production viable.

No its not that fun to feel the unbreathably thin air at 35,000 feet in your hair

Did you have the blue pill today? Today should have been the red pill... Your "question" is all over the place.

No, and if they had as many Engineers as they have Lawyers, they would have a better product....
