Yes, but it's still vapourware (unlike the solid, real, 2200 which you can
presently convert your folding stuff into). When it condenses into
something solid, I'm sure Europa kit-buyers will be queueing up for it. At
the Elvington Seminar recently, we were given to understand that it would
be pretty much a slot-in replacement for the 2200 in a Europa engine
compartment. Which reminds me, what news from the group that are installing
the first 2200 in a Europa? The distributor here promised not to allow
anyone else to install a Jabiru in a Europa until the first one was
thoroughly debugged. Of course when standng near the front end of that
process, he couldn't tell where the back end was at ...
