Ford/Mazda needs to wake up and FAA certify the RX8 engine for use in aircraft.
We have already showed them how to do it including use of their own transmission
parts in the psru.

I would be glad to help them in any way I could.

I read an article in the New York Times Business section on Thursday 
the 28th about naming the head of Mazda in the US. I don't
recall who it was, I was scanning the article for any mention 
of the rotary engine. They mentioned that Mazda was pretty much
resigned to their market share and were betting on the RX-8 
being one of their flagship products. Seems to me that if they could
certify a 13b or 20b based rotary for aviation, it would be 
a tremendous feather in their cap.
