  • All of us light sport pilots support this effort. Four cycle Rotax engines cannot run on 100LL all the time so we bring our own mogas. This irritates our local FBO's and subjects our engines to ethanol. There have been some unexplaned engine failures of some 2 cycle Rotax engines, and I bet ethanol was a factor.

  • I hear something detonating

  • a bit too early i agree. 1 trip around the patch is a lot different than prolonged use. our engines were built for lead. unfortunate but true. at least this is a start.

  • Amazing-they made it around the pattern once. And lived to tell about it. I went out to my FBO and noticed they were not selling 94UL yet.

  • Are the pilot and flight test engineer members of the Dharma Initiative?

  • WOW - really proud of you. Awesome job!!!

  • Goodbye lead!

  • Sounds like the engine dies on landing...

  • The engine did not die on landing. What you are hearing is the pilot reducing throttle for landing.
