   Hi Paul I'm using this slow correspondence time to ask your opinion.

   I'm deciding which plane and engine to pick. So I could start building
   from plan. (less expensive). Well now I know for sure a want a rotary
   engine (which one? like 13turbo w/o the turbo so I could have ram air
   induction, renesis on a Mustang II? will it fit?). From the start,
   my mine was made up for a rotary. Don t ask me why but rotary just make
   so much sense. Rotary engine goes in an airplane like daddy goes with
   mummy :)))

   Now where I'm hesitating is the Mustang II. A fellow at work is
   building one from plans (great). Where I'm concerned is that it seems
   so much popular with the RV. Also there is so much been made for them
   and so little for the Mustang II why not the Mustang? I don't want to
   find my self lost in the garage walking around in circle cursing at me
   regretting making the wrong choice. Because everything has already been
   created for the plane (RV) but I have to re-invent the wheel for the
   mustang. I'm limited in human resources I'm a train conductor not an
   engineer. The Mustang has so much (for me) room for improvement reducing
   drag and all that jazz it seem the sky is the limit in improving it (Am
   I wrong or the RV would be just as fun to build from plans possible?).
   I just had to get it of my chest.

   Just about everywhere I look they talk about a RV 4, 6, etc etc... not
   much help from RWS Tracy he is a RV guy. At RWS they have only one
   customer with email address doing Mustang II and rotary. Did not find
   much much more than this one guy.

   Where is the beef???

   I'll let people answer that have built both.

Hi Mark.
I read your story about the Mustang II your planing to build.
I had the same idea but changed to an RV 9A which stalls at 45mph vs 70
on a MII. But if your looking for an rotary 13b Ihave one with bell
housing and starter.
If you are interested my email is vogthenry@yahoo.ca

Thank you.
Henry.
