    what are you asking for your kit? ----- Original Message ----- From: ALFRED ROSA To: kis-list@matronics.com Sent: Wednesday, December 28, 2011 5:32 PM Subject: Re: KIS-List: Super Cruiser On Wed, Dec 28, 2011 at 6:02 PM, <barrynorman@comcast.net> wrote: Hi, My name is Barry and I joined the KIS list to learn more about the super cruiser because I'm thinking about buying a kit that's 70 percent done from one of the current builders.

Mine is about 85% done on the body parts and has no engine or avionics, so I never flew it. Does anyone have experience with the LYCOMING XP360 engine by Mattituck with the fadec system? No, but I don't see why it wouldn't be a dependable Lyc. Is anyone willing to talk to me on the phone and share their experience with flying one?
