Buy a NEW Heathkit now

[Ed Mosher]

Actually, Chris, et al,  the Heath Parasol and Super Parasol used
Henderson Motorcycle engines!  Don't recall a Model A engine in either of
them.  There was also a set of FLOATS for the Parasol, and of course the
racing plane, the Heath Baby Bullet.

And did you know that Heath WON the US Air Races in 1927 with the
Parasol?  Bet ya didn't!  I've got the book to prove it; "Aviation
Yearbook for 1927".  It lists Heath as being first of three planes.
Unfortunately (or fortunately) Heath was the only plane to FINISH the
race!

And all YOU can remember is some guy flying blind for 33 hours to some
place called Paris!
