Am I the only person waiting over 3 months for a Rotax FWF (less engine) from Mexico? Just courious if anyone else is in the same boat as me. If you are getting close, I would suggest you order early.

It took about three months for my order to arrive. I also had to wait
additional time for some small back ordered items.

Dan Wilde,

Thanks for the reply. Good to know I'm not the only one, even though it doesn't make it any better. Just thought it would be a "heads up" for those that might be at the same point as me and a reminder to order at least 3 months in advance.

Mike My exp was same as Dan Wilde. 3 months for the package + 3 additional for a 90 degree bent elbow fitting for the cooling system. I have now been waiting about 3 months so far for a Warp drive 3 blade ground adjustable (no charge yet) and I have ordered a full Dynon 180 package and was given a 12 week delivery on that too. Wise up Mike. Everything is a three month wait. Just kidding Mike, looks that way though...PS Dynon sent me the complete instalation package for the unit almost immediately. This is a comprehensive package and will give the builder a lot of work to do while he waits. The unit basicaly just plugs in when it comes. Where are you getting the engine from. I got mine from Lockwood and discovered that they no longer ship engines with the "BANJO bolt" oil return (at) bottom of engine. They now ship with a straight fitting that you have to change out. Another 6 week wait for me. Sorry about the long reply, You got nothing else to do though....Geoff.....hang in there Mike.

Hi Geoff,

I haven't ordered the engine yet. Cowl, mount, insturment package and prop come with the FWF package from Zenith. I do have the interment panel laid out and exp buss and Dynon mounted. I am waiting for the instrument package before I drill any more holes and continue with my wiring.

Thanks for the information about the "BANJO bolt" oil return fitting. In the mean time I disabled all major components and have started to paint them. I need to finish the wiring so I can close up the cowl and get the fuse painted.

Thanks
Mike Hoffman
