With the possible exception of the 912S.
Those 912s stand up VERY well but the price!!!!!!!


That's the word on the street, but, the company!

I just will not allow myself to get into an aircraft with an engine made by
a company I trust so little.

It sure limits your (read my) choices in the light sport aircraft field.


Bombardier is a very highly regarded company - most of it's products
are in the top 10% of their competition - but ANY 2 stroke engine, to
me, is suspect.
I know, in theory they are almost bulletproof because they have so few
moving parts - but in practice they are fragine.

Heck, I won't even take my chainsaw up a ladder, why would I fly
behind one????
TBO on the 2 stroke stuff is PITIFUL.
