engines??

Nothing.  Paul's web site includes a link to ours under that label, or
something similar.
The design would fly well with an aircraft engine.  We designed the
aircraft around large
people and a loafing rotary engine (3 rotor 150-200 cruise hp).  The
large people part of
the design is what will facilitate putting just about any engine you
want up front.  The cockpit is 59" wide.
Or as I'm fond of saying at the open house "...wider 'n a Buick Park
Avenue!"

Well you should at least offer a rotary motor mount and cowl with
the kit Chris. Jerry can make the mm's for you wholesale.
Maybe some molded cooling ducts.

Definitely.  Who knows, maybe we can get "factory pricing" from
Powersport, the way Vans and others get from Continental and Lycoming.
