Paul - Posted on another forum today

Sadler Aircraft Company is excited to announce a tentative OEM arrangement
with RotaMax Engines (www.rotamax.net).  The Sadler Vampire LSA will include
as a powerplant option the normally aspirated twin-rotor RotaMax.  This
powerplant, conservatively rated at 130 HP, should provide excellent climb
rates and considerably shorter runway requirements at takeoff.

In addition, RotaMax is a US-based manufacturer.  This strategic partnership
means that the Sadler Vampire can be 100% made in the USA!

Top speed will remain at 138 mph to meet LSA requirements.  And we still
hope to keep the base price of the Vampire below $85,000.

Flight tests with the new powerplant should begin during the first week of
November of this year, with production models available in 2008.  We will be
providing additional data as soon as it is available.
