Paul,
I sincerely concur with your reply.
Although I overhaul about a dozen aircraft engines annually,
I am sure you understand my frustration with cost of parts,
and essentially no improvements to a 60 year old design,
other than the AD's as a result of customer field testing.
I also agree with your rotary assessment.
Several years back, I considered the rotary a lark, but after
reading Tracy's book, e-mail with Paul Yaw, and logging
onto this site, I am considering it very strongly as my next
powerplant.
Anxiously awaiting info on the new rotary.
If anyone on this site has attended my engine seminars at OSH,
they are familiar with my verbal assassination of the current state
of aircraft piston engines.
