There is a Supercat here on the farm strip that has a Hirth 2706 but sadly with a spate of very serious failures, necessitating new cylinders and pistons and a complete replacement of the ignition system. As you say, they take a hit on the net. It is a pity they have not proven more reliable, as the basic design promised some mechanical advantages over the Rotax 582, at least to my way of thinking.

Flying qualities of the X-Air are fine but just remember that it is a high lift high drag design and to get the nose down muyo pronto if the engine fails.
