Hello All
I am sure that everyone who is interested in the Rotax engine to power their
Rebel is aware that (mainly due to the devaluation of the dollar) they have
had a sizeable price increase. Before Oshkosh 07 it was priced at a little
under $14,000 now the price is $18,122. Plus $1500 for accessories. I was
told by LEAF that there probably will be another in crease at the first of
the year. My goal was to build light enough that I could certify at 1,320
Lbs. Gross Wt. This increase in price has given me cause to go back and
look at potentially cheaper engines like the Cont. 0-200 and the Lyc 0-235.
Unlike the Rotax they can be purchased used or rebuilt at considerable
savings. I would appreciate comments from anyone flying Rebels with these
power plants.
Charlie E.
