VW?

I'm just kinda curious about who here might be flying
(or building?)
a VW powered airplane?

T-2, Quail, Ragwing Special...a little at a time! Gettin' hangar space next
month, thank heaven; I'll be able to see the living room floor and the
opposite wall of my garage again.

Oh come on now!

There are only two of us actually playing with VW planes?

On the whole list?

Does a Half-VW count?

Not worth messing with VW's now that cheap used 80hp Rotax's and
Jabirus are available.

One can only hope. g

Could it be...
Today's builders are more sophisticated, have more viable
options and are vastly better informed than in years past?

Possibly, or maybe there just aren't THAT many builders here?

For sake of argument, half a point?

Not exactly off topic (only half off) ... but I am seeking info on a
1/2 VW and a comparison between a 1/2 VW and a 1/3 Corvair.

Cost ? Weight? Power? And most importantly, fuel consumption.

How many Gal/Hr at minimum power settings? ... say 50% & how many HP
does this represent?

Any response appreciated, thinking of attempting a world record
flight, but need hard info.

Thanks,

You got THAT right, dude. I have flown behind a 1/2 VW and know someone
who has 700+ hours on one in a J-3 Kitten. He flies out of State Line, SE
of Rutherfordton, NC.
