Default Diamond/Thielert news

Hi,

since this is discussed here frequently:

- Diamond has selected the Williams FJ-33 powerplant for its D-Jet

- Thielert claims to have 50 Centurion 1.7 diesel engines flying in the
hand of customers, 40 of which in Diamond DA40 Stars, 10 in converted
172s. They have racked up 5000 hours so far. Early cooling and fuel
flow problems in the DA40 have been corrected, they say.
