I mean Rotax is kicking some ass, they've got a 160 horsepower engine now, weirdly enough out of the same displacement as the 912S. Imagine if they made a 6 cylinder variant, damn thing could make 300 horsepower easy.

I cannot think of a reason to use a Corvette engine in an airplane other than "fuck it."
