Carb ice
I'm sure that the debate about carb ice / carb heat on the
Rotax 912 will never reach a satisfactory conclusion.
I can only reiterate that, with the cold air plenum inlet
system fitted to our demonstrator G-ODTI for over a year, we
have not been able to find the symptoms of carb ice.  But  "one
swallow does not a summer make".  So we are mindful that it is
not impossible that someone flying a Europa with a cold air
inlet system to their Rotax 912 engine may experience carb ice!
I don't doubt that certain installations of 912 in other
aircraft types have experienced carb icing, as another e-mail
message says.  We haven't in our Europa.
The O-200 engine fitted to my Long-Ez, an engine notorious for
carb icing in Cessna 150's, has never suffered from carb ice in
11 years of flying.  I mention this only to illustrate the
point that the engine installation has a marked effect on
whether or not carb ice will form.
Regards
Andy
