    Deltahawk - Finally!

    Nice engine, but why would I pay $110,000 for one when I can get one of the spiffy new turbines for about the same price? Yes, I could save money on fuel with a DeltaHawk, but if I could afford a $110,000 engine, I probably wouldn't care about fuel costs.

    Wooden Aviation

    I'm not familiar with them, but they look like a good candidate to take over the Mini-Max line of aircraft.

    In side out Wankel engine.

    I've been reading about this engine for well over a decade. After all these years, a go-kart and model airplane is all they have to show for their efforts.

    Airplane For Sale TEAM MiniMax site lists aircraft for sale

    I sure do hate to see Team Mini-Max close down. I hope someone buys them out and continues to offer these great airplanes.

    O-100-- interesting new engine

    The longer the O-100 goes without someone taking it over, the greater the chances of the project dying.

    Would you buy a $13,700 Chinese Aerolite 103 Clone (Ready-to-fly)?

    Chinese manufacturers can make very high-quality stuff...when they want to. And therein lies the problem -- they are usually fine with cutting corners to make a quick buck.
