Date: Wed, 11 Feb 2009 15:10:18 -0600 X-Mailer: Apple Mail (2.753.1) X-Chzlrs: 0 Good afternoon everyone, I'm considering putting a rotary engine on a Barrows Bearhawk, a 2500- pound high-wing tailwheel aircraft, and I was wondering if there are any concerns regarding lubrication of the engine when it's on a mounted at a pretty good angle. In flight, when it's level, I'm confident that there wouldn't be any problems. Just wondering if there is anything additional to consider when at idle, taxi, etc. Many thanks and best regards, Chris
