The Morane-Renault diesel (230 hp turboed) has been flying for a while and
is supposed to be ready for market later this year--but the price is
reported at ~$50,000.US. The specs are pretty interesting. 40% lower fuel
consumption, 3000 hr TBO, much lower parts count, still 210 hp at 18000
ft--. Once there is some competition from one of the several others (inc
TCM-Gap) perhaps the prices will get within reach.
