Hung the new Rotax 912iS today. One guy, one hour.
Back when I did N614EF with the IO-360M1B. Six guys, three hours. I'm liking the 12.
One thing I was curious about, given the way the 7A engine was mounted with the lord mounts, is that a castle nut and cotter pin isn't used; a self locking nut is.
I'm not criticizing -- I don't have engineering expertise -- I was just curious why that is.
