X-AIR CENTRAL Re: Engine Brackets

What are there any restrictions/requirements necessary for a manufacturer to have when looking for a manufacturer?
cheers

Just to clear up the information about the engine brackets. Bert
Floods has agreed to design a bracket which will fit the Rotax 912,
if
and when we start ordering 912's for our aircraft. Our conversation
went something like, if you can come up with an engine mount to suit
our aircraft then i think more customers would consider a 912. I dont
think Bert Flood's would like to put the work into a bracket if it's
to be used on an opposition engine.

I will do two things. 1. Ask the factory in France for more
information on their mount, and who made it, can we have drawings
etc... and 2. Put the word out to find a suitable person to fabricate
a new mount specifically to suit the Jabiru and Rotax 912 engines.

There are that many planes out there now flying around Australia i am
sure if either engine importer got there act together and did a mount
then their engine would sell in reasonable numbers. Every customer
asks the same question.... Can i put a 4 stroke on the X-Air ? and
why
wont the Jab or 912 bolt straight on !........ if it was as easy as
saying the Jab/912 will fit with the optional $300 engine mount then
i
am sure they would buy them.

Easy way....... find someone who can design a mount and do some
welding.

Thanks Michael
