In Newsletter 14 (July 96) the plans for the BMW engine are-
1. initial runs late august
2. after 50 sucessful hours of ground running, a total stripdown of engine and
gearbox
3. then, a 50 hour flight test prog.
After seeing the engine at Cranfield, on the front cockpit
section which will be used for ground running, i am very interested to
see what the results are. The engine is fuel injected, so no carb
icing problems, has electronic ignition, and looked a very neat
installation. Spares should be cheaper than Rotax too.
