So I finally decided to get serious about engines today. Long story short, effective TODAY Rotax has instituted a $3000 price increase to adjust for the...
Ouch! I hate to tell you, but it's going to get worse. The last price I heard for that engine was $13,000. Is there any chance that Zenith has special engine...
Yeah, I talked to Zenith. In fact they were the ones to tell me about this. Then I called Lockwood... same story. I don't think Zenith does any negotiation...

I hate to rub it in, but my Mazda 13B was less than $7,000 complete, firewall forward. A bit too big for your application, and I had to spend years building it...
Yeah, I was going to use the Jabiru 3300, but as the name implies it turns out it runs at 3300 RPM, way to fast for the prop you need. Basically the design...
John - You can't use a different prop? I don't know exactly what your size constraints are, or what aircraft you're building, but I know the Sonex (and a few...
I could use a smaller prop, but then I would loose the short takeoff capabilities, and because of the huge amount of induced drag the 701 has, not gain...
John - Compromise on price or compromise on performance... sadly it always seems to be one or the other! :-P Have you done any calculations or chatted with...
Yeah, I am on the hangar list, I put in for it in January, 2006, and last time I checked, I was number 12 on the list. That was about 2 weeks ago. So, I can...
I've got a flatbed trailer with ramps, so if your airplane isn't too tall we can haul it out there. Call me if you are interested. Don Stanwyck 425-788-8239 ...
I should have added that I assume the wings aren't on it or are easily removed ;-) From: eastsideeaa@yahoogroups.com [mailto:eastsideeaa@yahoogroups.com] On ...
From the Luscombe List on Yahoo Groups. I agree that it sucks--wonder if the Precision rep knew about this being in the offing when he presented to our...
I saw this on the RV list yesterday too. What's this really mean? Are there other carb manufacturers? Presumably its in someone's interest to ensure support...

Has everybody heard that Boeing Surplus is closing December 23rd, forever? They will still sell stuff over the internet, but when I'm buying used I want to put...
Yes, I heard they were closing. The inventory started to shrink in the past few years. Too bad, I'll miss it. I would have spent a fortune on drill bits alone...
Yep, sad. But on a sort-of-brighter-note, Harbor Freight is opening a new store in Bellevue. It is on NE 20th just down the hill from Fred Meyer. Thanx, Joe...

Wrong Joe, sorry. I don't know anything about Rotax (well other than it's no where near enough HP for me :-) ) I've just finished taking a Mazda Rotary engine...
