Next Gen Certified Aircraft Engine? Honda

[Jman]

Here is a link to a little news break that just came my way from EAA. I thought I would share it because it sounds interesting. It looks like Continental and Honda have been working together and have been testing a prototype 4 cyl, horizontally opposed, water cooled, auto gas burning, engine for the past two years. Here is a link to the article.

Maybe one of the big two is starting to get the picture. Time will tell I guess.

Now if Lycoming would just team up with Mazda, things might really start getting interesting .
