Rudi Pretorius on this forum has bought a 2.3liter powered BB (ZU-DVK) and needs to update his POH with specifications and maintenance schedule for the 2.3liter VW engine

I thought that all you Cubby boys use this motor and must have something to help him

email him on rudi at limpro dot coza or post it here

Do you have a runway there? Be nice to pop in and come have a look

Hi Morph, yes we have a runway, east-west (09--27), it is 320 meters long with a nice flat approach from both sides. A low pass or three will help before landing as some folks think it is short and nasty! Phil Bristow knows my strip quite well , ask him it isnt THAT nasty.The surface is good. 1200ft ASL mornings before 11am are best, no or little wind.
Call me on 072 6716 240.
Cheers
Jean Crous.
