George (down under)

The Mid west site has gone dead (obviously due to the move to Germany).
Their Harrier engine has the following weight

 weight of
39KG will include ignition control units regulator filters electric starter
reduction drive.  Additional to this will be radiator- cooling fluid-
exhaust system- battery- oil tank- fuel pumps.

The cost is probably more of a problem for most than the weight. The move to
Germany is well timed to the weakening of the Euro though. The Pound is
really high, like the US dollar. Friends in England in the homebuilt scene
have indicated that the high time engine only got 125 TBO. This is an
unsubstantiated rumour - do we have someone from Mid west on the group who
could give us an update on this project?
