Greetings,
I just noticed that this
year's winner of the best non-certified engine is a Europa, with what looks like
a 912S/912ULS.
SNF
Awards:
Europa Builders page
showing engine:
What's up with this? While the 912ULS is not
certified, I understand that it's the same as the 912S, which is
certified. The only difference I'm aware of is the price and
paperwork. This also appears to be the standard engine for the
Europa. Hard to believe this should win over people who use
truly alternate engines, and roll their own FWF
installation.
This gives me an
idea. My RV-8 has an AeroSport O-360 that just arrived. Since
this is an "experimental only" engine, I should be able to enter the "best
non-certified engine" judging next year :-)
Cheers,
