One of the things I have to consider is the possibility of selling the RV-3 later this year, when I get the Kolb flying. I just can't decided if there's any market for a rotary powered RV-3 though. I'm guessing that my plane would sell for $25K-$30K with a reasonably fresh 160 Lycoming in it. I wonder how much the rotary engine would affect that price? I'm guessing that it would just be a matter of finding the right buyer, which could take a while. Don't know that I'd be in any hurry though. Again, just thinking about the options.
