Ok Guys would like to know of anyone thats Preparing to Install either of the 260i or 360i Engines in their RV-12's ? These seems a nicely Engineered Belgium Aircraft engine that fit on Jabiru Style engine mounts. Anone with Info I would like to hear from them if Possible..

About a year ago I was approached about having one of these engines installed on my first RV-12, it looks like it would work and it looks like a good engine but the manufacture only wanted to offer a $ 400 discount for being first and the local rep has a reputation for not getting things finished so I did not want to get involved. I hope they find someone who will as it may be a good alternative but it is not much cheaper.

Best regards,

Thanks Vern I see "FlywithGus.net. " is the USA agent now & I belive he is toying with the Idea of doing a RV-12 FWF Installation. Sounds like this may be a nice engine Alternative to the Rotax / Jabiru Engines, Also the FH110 Viking Aircraft ( Honda) Engine may well be a good Combo too as one RV-12 is being built for the Viking as we speak! Interesting times we live in for sure!
