I'm still trying to select an aircraft to build from scratch and it's
starting to look like it's coming down to the engine (budget reasons of
course). I really like the Pietenpol Aircamper but from what I've read you
need a Rotex or other "aircraft" engine and of course that's expensive. I
was also thinking of the Volksplane, which I don't like as much but it can
use a VW engine which I can find cheap and I've torn down and rebuilt a
couple of them so I'm more familiar with them.
So the question's are.does anyone have experience (good or bad) with a VW
engine in an Aircamper? What other scratch build planes work well with VW
engines other then the Volksplanes? What other engines would fall into the
same price range has a VW (which I would be getting used and rebuilding
myself)?
Thanks all

PS. If anyone has a Pietenpol, Volksplane, or similar plane in the LA area
I
sure would like to take a look at it.
