RC Roundtable podcast/ Babe Bee in Space Shuttle flight
I had the honour this morning of being part of a "RC Roundtable" podcast https://rcroundtable.com/ and a good portion of the podcast was about Cox engines.
On of the moderators was Terry Dunn, who was able to include a Cox Babe Bee engine aboard an Endeavour Space Shuttle flight in 2010. Pretty awesome and he sent us a pic of the engine, together with the official certificate and a related story published in FLyRC Macazine.

Re: RC Roundtable podcast/ Babe Bee in Space Shuttle flight
What a charming story!! Has the engine returned with the astronauts or was left at the Space Station?
Haha at least I know I am not alone with my craze in sending/carrying COX engines to exotic places..if Hungary is already not exotic enough just consider I carried some with me on my international travels to places that probably no COX engine had been before...Inner Mongolia in China...Tuscani in Italy...Amman in Jordan...Bahamas..Dubai...etc..
