That's the part that doesn't sound right to me, unless Cessna really
has got religion about doing something completely new. They are
probably the only company in the world that could make this work. But
it's one hell of a gamble for them, too. Like I said, that doesn't
sound like the Cessna we know.



Not to mention that Lycoming and Cessna are owned by the same parent
company, why buy (the engine) from a competitor?
