I wonder if you have to do a hot section in between overhauls. Most turbines require that.

Early days, they've only got about 100 flying hours under their belt. A long way to go, but they've made a great start.

I spoke to him at the show. There are a series of inspections with a boroscope inspection at 1500 hours. There are also various oil changes, injector changes, etc. at various points. TBH I can't remember all the details but it did seem reasonable.

Impossible dream! They'll never get the cost down and good life and durability. Also light aircraft pilots don't have any money, it's been tried before.

Speak for yourself. They are testing this in several aircraft over there and when mosaic goes live next year, you will see them in a lot more aircraft in America with a 250knot top speed for light sport, it will be attractive offer

Why don't they just show the BSFC graph. All these companies hide the real numbers. It's BSFC at 75% is around 317g/kwh, which is about 50% more than a modern piston engine that makes the same power and weighs about the same.

Was thinking the same. Robin DR400-180 with 20 hp more piston engine consumes roughly 25 liter per hour, also Mogas. Probably the engine is also way cheaper. A tco comparison would be interesting since turbines usually require less maintenance and are probably more reliable but if something gets broken or you need maintenance I guess it's harder to find a mechanic and it's probably also more expensive.
