Just
FYI, FWIW. This may have already circulated, but I just noticed
it.
and yes,
even though I am a lawyer...or play one in real life.....I still have trouble
commenting on Stooopid and things that can really piss me off.

All the
best,

Hi
everyone,
I have just one little bit of information
about auto conversions.
This only concerns Mazda. They are threatening
law suits against
anyone using a Mazda engine for aircraft purposes. I'm
assuming they
are going after the folks that are trying to make a
business of
selling engines or redrives and not the DIY guy. I am
involved with a
project with one of these companies and it is a very real
threat. It
makes me wonder if Subaru will be next. It would be hard to
spend
resources to make an auto conversion knowing the manufacturer
may
shut you down. They have very deep pockets and could break you
before
it ever went to court. This really sucks as it will hurt us
all.

--- end of quote ---
I'm no lawyer, but I don't see
how a manufacturer can legally prevent an
individual from taking one
of their engines and using it for their own
purposes, regardless how
dangerous it may be.
However, a person selling the engines to the
public for the use of
aircraft
engines is different from individuals
converting them themselves.
