IMHO if Power Sport really wanted to help, and I told Ray this five
years ago,
they should sell the bits and pieces necessary to install the rotary.
Get a lot of rotaries flying first any way you can.

IMHO The market is not yet ready for a $27,500 firewall forward rotary
package.
It may be another five years if we are lucky and more people enter
air races with rotaries. When Everett Hatch owned Power Sport he
understood
the synergy between air racing and sales. Klause Saviour LSE is doing
very very well indeed exploiting that synergy. So too does Lancair,
Continental Engines, and Hartzel props.

In the mean time PowerSport could show up on a regular basis at air
shows
around the country. Something they are not doing now.

If PowerSport really wanted to help, they could share their technology.
   I, for example,  would really like all the P Port details.  The end
result of sharing  would be that all of  us, building and testing,
would be contributing to their product development.  The concept is
similar to the open platform development on Linux.   Jerry
