I am glad Oly is OK. Sounds like he did a great piece of flying to get upright before the tree caught him. Apparently God placed the tree there for him. It is a shame he didn't have a lottery ticket at the time! There is a lot more going on here than just a rotary engine. The plane is supposed to be plastic and stall at 48 mph and is stall resistant as well. This plane was a metal variant (MiniViggen??). When Rutan gives up on a plane, there may be a reason. Then there is that high thrust line???
