I'll respond cause Jim takes a really long time to type a message using that one finger, hunt and peck approach.... ;-) Here is a pretty good link to the info: [http://www.check-six.com/Crash_Sites/N82X-Jewett.htm] http://www.check-six.com/Crash_Sites/N82X-Jewett.htm In short, Jewett was killed in the crash of their "around the world without stopping" aircraft. I flew a Q1 for about 500 hours and am aware of NO dangerous problems with it. In fact, it probably saved my bacon more times that I saved it. I flew with a Rotax 503 and 1835cc VW and MUCH, MUCH preferred the 4-stroke engine.

The plane hasn't flown for about 10 years so I plan to restore it to flying condition and possibly install a 1/2 VW 45 hp by Casler that weights about the same as the Onan. You made this statement in a past post: "After Tom Jewett died I lost interest in anything Gene Shehan had to say and discontinued my Q subscription." Would you mind expanding on the statement..I'm not aware how Jewett died..was it in a Q1 and is there concern about the Q1 that I should be aware of?
