Hi, John....are you looking for a Midwest rotary
engine?  There is one on a
2-seat ultralight aircraft at our local airport,
and he is replacing it with
a Rotax.  I heard it run and saw it fly.  He
probably wants to sell it.  I
know this is not a scam.  Let me know if you are
interested in it. If so, I
can try to find out more details. Paul Conner

Paul:  Can you tell us know the details as to why the
owner is replacing his Midwest rotary engine for a
Rotax?

Thanks,  Kevin

The problem the owner has with the rotary is poor idle. He has no
technical
or mechanical expertise.  Midrange and cruise power settings are
powerful
and smooth.  I will try to get to the airport this weekend and take a
couple
pictures of it and try to find out any more info that might be
available.
