John

This has the potential to be a very good bushplane. What do you think will be the best engine option with the 150-160hp engine weighing more than 130kg?

Thanks

I understand that ICP intend putting a Lycoming 160 hp onto the four seat and offering the Rotax 100 hp or MO9 (newly developed) option on the LSA 2 seat version.
