George-- We need one too, if that is possible. We have #255 under

Many thanks Scott, George, for your thoughts.
The article you asked about, Scott, is the article from your site
authored
by Fred Abramson. I guess when the article's first paragraph mentioned
says, "...the M14P may have some surprises in store for you. Expensive
surprises. Maybe even scary surprises", a guy like me could develop a
negative image from the get-go.
The look of the rotary engine on the Moose is just too amazing to
ignore,
and the fuel-flow numbers you estimated are a lot lower than I expected
them
to be. That's quite welcome! I was worried that they were going to far
exceed their flat-bodied counterparts.
I can accept that if one want to use this kind of engine that one has to
accept the side effects (if you will). Interestingly, a couple of hours
after I first posted this message, I thought I'd peruse the M14 forums
to
see what kind of information is available, and I ran across references
to
some of the specialized kits made available from vendors to minimize
some of
those side effects. It appears that this engine is rather well
supported in
the U.S. Seeing that some of these engines make their way to ag
aircraft,
and living here in the middle of corn and cow country, it seems
reasonable
that one might find service for an M14 within a reasonable distance.
Regarding the Russian maintenance manual of which you spoke, I presume
there
is a translation available, or are there lots of circles and arrows? :-)
Of
the limited things I've read, in addition to your comments, the engine's
service manuals are said to be very well laid out and cover the material
thoroughly. That would be a great benefit, to be sure. I would
appreciate
any direction to other references to this engine if you're aware of any.
Thanks again for taking the time to write. I'm looking forward to
continued
reading of your Moose adventures, along with any trials and tribulations
related to the airframe. I'm trying to stay on top of the tailwheel
bulkead
and elevator cracking incidents and see if Murphy addresses them before
I'm
ready to build anything.
Best regards,
Chris
