Just an FYI here for those trying to decide what engine to use. All engines are subject to failure, some more than others. Yesterday, a few miles from my home, a Sonex equipped with an Aerovee VW conversion engine, crashed shortly after take off. The problem according to the FSDO man I talked to today was a broken crank. Ever looked at how beefy a Corvair crank is compared to a VW!!!
