Re: VW 2.1L engine used in some Cubbies
Contact Jean Pierre on Avcom. He used to demo Cubbies and his aircraft behaved impecably during our tour. I have great respect for his knowledge of his engine and his aircraft

I just flew 5000 km next to JP with his 2.1 litre fuel injected Cubby. That motor did not miss a beat and we flew for up to 4.5 hrs continuosly on some days. What a beaut!
