Thank you. Roscoe, tell me about “Spanky”!

I have been looking at options to improve overall performance and range with the potential to also increase payload. It seems the fuel burn is about 15-20% lower than the O-235 and would eliminate the need for aux fuel and lower the hourly cost when compared to the O-320 STC.

At the present this is still a research exercise since the lower weight of the Rotax would impact the CG too.
