I would hope that I know this. I've built a rotary and had it running on
an airframe, alas not without problems (not with the rotary itself, but
part of a builders learning curve)

Then you are well aware of the problem of dealing with all of the excess
heat the rotary produces.

I am not an anti auto engine person; far from it. I like some of the
things the rotary brings to the table, in fact.

I am not sure that I would want to have to deal with the problems, though
some, including you, have been willing to.

That does sum it up. The rotaries just take a lot more dedication that I'll
ever have.

I have a great pair of rotary mechs for /autos/, not sure that
translates well into aircraft.
