Anyone have an old OMC or Sachs rotary sitting around?  I know one

of

the guys that did the production for OMC back in the day and he
supposedly has a couple in his attic.  I don't think he wants to

part

with them though.  A rotary around 20 hp would make a great

powerplant

for an ultralight powered sailplane....

There are three guys on the Hummelbird list who are in possesion of the

OMC

rotaries. More lUnfortunately this is now a really old engine, so

sourceing

parts is diffecult. Hopefully either the freedom motors or Wankel GesmbH
designs will be bought out a bankraupcy auction cheap, so someone can

build

them for a realistic price.

    I have 2 of the OMC engines. Not really intrested in getting rid of them
though. I got on this list hoping to get some news about them but so far it
has been nothing but Mazda engines.
