If you gotta fly behind VW power...
It appears the 'Great Pains' version is one of the best.
You will give us a Pirep from time to time, right?
3rd party talk without the walk is soooo meaningless.

FWIW....
I've seen a lot of neat canards at Ottawa Filed of Dreams.
I favor the 0-200 sort naturally, but the most curious specimen
was a single place powered by an ONAN of 18 hp?

ARRGH.....

I've heard good things about Great Plains. In fact, the insurance company I
got a quote from would only insure Revmaster, Aeroconversion and Great
Plains conversions.

One of the good things about VWs, aside from their simplicity is... there's
are a lot of hours and history behind them, so that failure modes are well
known. Knowing what to look for and what can go wrong is a big advantage.
It's not enough to know now things work when everything goes right, knowing
how things work when they don't is just as important!

Personally, I find the twin-unreliable engine thread disturbing. In some
PRODUCTION twins, the best you can say for having two engines is that it
doubles your chance of an engine failure

Will keep the group up-to-date. I gotta get it signed off again first.
