Thanks Pete, you are right, a 915 with an Airmaster using published
figures comes in at 217 Lbs, so the 220lbs+ would be the real FWF
weight, along with the longer arm. I checked with Europa, they said they
were unaware of any installed 915's and were unable to confirm it could
be done. I would love the extra horsepower but just don't want to be a
test pilot : )
Cheers,
Brian Phillips.
