There is apparently a certified 310 HP diesel aircraft engine available from
Thielert now.
A quick search on Wikipedia (http://en.wikipedia.org) found the following:
The first manufacturer to produce a certified design for the general
aviation market is 'Thielert GmbH'
The artist is Ed Kilbourne
The CD that song is on is called Cloudbase
He also has one called L/D
You can buy them from his website

Apart from the very successful Junkers diesel aero engines, Packard also had
operational aero diesels,
the first flying in a Stinson Detroiterin1928.
Try www.oldengine.org/members/Duxford/Aviat.htm for more info on aero
diesels.

I had a look at Kingaroy's C150 tug on Sunday at Dalby.
Looks nice repainted in rich yellow and stands out much better than
white I think.
Contrary to what is on the GFA website from the etug people, they
claim they don't have an airframe problem. A couple of bolts weren't
properly
I am keenly interested in why accidents occur (and seem to re-occur) and
propose to write a paper on same. The common taxonomies of
powered flight don't necessarily all apply to gliders, so I'm going to
develop or modify an existing one and apply it to the (considerable) data
that I have. Does
Does that mean from 60 miles out I can interpret the data.
Given that I would then have the thermal location.
Could I have software calculate the climb rate of other gliders.
Yes !

Off the top of my head you could start with a matrix.
Have phase of flight on one axis and then nature of accident
eg loss of control (spin), controlled flight into terrain
(yes it happens), mechanical failure, fire (electrical),
fire (fuel / engine) etc across the other.
That may give you some
Greate ideas all, Anthony. The problem that I can see is the very
subjective nature of the determination of the cause/nature of the
accident/incident. Off the top of my head, could be an example where the
nature of the accident was stall/spin and cause could be loss of control.
Maybe these could
