![]() 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. I never bet against insurance companies.... sorta. g Think about this, concerning life insurance.... The life insurance company bets that you are going to live. The insured bets that he/she is going to die. Should the insured really want to win the bet? bfg Speaking on insurance... Are you going to be insured for 1st flight? If so, what are the insurance company requirements? 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 ![]() Eric Disturbing fer sure. Could be a dreamy eyed, totally indestructible youth or....an adult without a shred of sanity or possibly a subconscious death wish. Doubling the engine trouble is anything but sane for those of us that have real multi-engine flying savvy. I can't imagine even Lloyds of London wanting a piece of this kind of suicidal thinking or 'execution'. I comprehend, but do not agree with, where the author is coming from when he is banking on a high power to weight unreliable 2 stroke to RELIABLY carry the crippled aircraft to automatic safety and ready repairs. Why not assume once safely on terra firma, one can zipper in a 3rd engine that is to be carried along in the baggage compartment? Why be inconvenienced one wit while cock- a-mayme dreaming out loud to one's internet wannabe buddies? In fact... JAY, if you were a true world class concept DREAMER... You'd be advocating at least *FOUR* UNRELIABLE ENGINES. Barnyard BOb -- the sky's the limit |
