We live in a country where GA still thrives and where you can actually just jump in your airplane and go somewhere. Those Brits are just jealous......

You are right it is a
Better Chippy. Having flown a Chippy with the piece of Shyte, boat anchor Dripsy Major, and one with a properly done 180 hp Lycoming conversion, I can say the Lycoming engined one was a far superior airplane.
Both the Dripsy and the Lycoming/Continental flat four designs originated in the 1930's. Which one is still in production and widely used ? I rest my case.
