 Here is the response I got from Falcon regarding insuring my rotary powered
 RV-6a with 185 hours of flight time under the EAA/Falcon program.

 "Thank you for your inquiry.  I regret to
 advise that we currently do not have an
 insurance market for the engine that you have
 described.  Currently, the only approved Mazda power
 package is the Wankel Engine by PowerSports.
 Please refer to the communication with Jim Nelson on
 this issue.
 Regards, Sharon Barks, Falcon Insurance Agency"

 So if you are a commerical entity (read - a likely candidate to advertise in
 Sport Aviation) then your product will be insured.  If you are true
 experimenter, then the EAA would just as soon that you go away for all the
 support they provide.  Yes, I have sent one of my "diplomatically" worded
 tirades  to the EAA organization - will be interesting to hear their
 comment, if they bother to reply.

Lets all do the same thing. Send an email to the EAA on this subject
and bombard them with the facts.
