    My Rotax is back from the shop. I need to break it in. What is the best way to tie the plane down. Is the tailwheel assembly strong enough? Thanks. Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=401300#401300

    I know one thing you ought to do! Tie that tail wheel DOWN so it can't rai se up under high power thrust!! Lots of guys assumed just tying it to a tree was all it needed. Wrong! Un der full throttle=2C it will rise up as the main gear wheels will roll rewa rd!

    Subject: anybody using a Rotax 670 in a Kolb Mk III?
    From: "lownslow" <mnmcouillard@yahoo.com>
    Hi there I'm a newbie to the list and don't know that I've quite figured out how to search the archives for this question. But i am wondering if anyone has used a Rotax 670 from Rotax Rick to power their Mk III Classic. I'm in Colorado and need the extra HP but can't quite bring myself to break the bank for a 912. Seems like Rick has them priced well. Would love to hear the experience folks have with this aircraft/engine combination Many thanks!
