[rebel-builders] Continental O-200

Haven't used that engine...but 100HP is sufficient. I first flew my full
blown 1650 gross rebel behind a Lycoming O-235 100 HP engine. It had no
issues doing better than 450FPM when at (or beyond) gross weight. The only
reason I ended up with 150HP is I got stuck on skis one day.... UHMW would
have been cheaper to put on the ski bottoms... but it was a damn good excuse
!

Just curious if anyone has ever used the Cont. O-200 in a Rebel. Just
thought it might work in the LSA catagory.

Many fly behind 80 hp (913). I met one with 65 hp continental that perform
well in aula (1300# gross). Fly very well in my Cessna 150 for 1600
official gross weight (usually 1640-1650)..
