Tim --
I too would like to know more about the engine choices you cite.
Heard that the 100HP 912 will be available October. I heard also that the
Jabiru
120HP may be displayed at Sun-N-Fun. However, I am suspicious of the Jabiru
on the Europa. At 3300 RPM, it must turn a smaller prop, and on Jabiru's kit
plane, they use a 54". No engineer me, but it seems the size of the Europa
fuselage will guarantee only that such a prop will dry the bugs quickly.
