We had a question:
Since the 180HP variant is going to be the first model certified,
how about posting a DH180V4 economic comparison chart with the
O-360?
After checking further into the Economic Comparison
question, I discovered that the reason we did them for the 160hp and
200hp is because we had reliable performance data for Lycoming
engines in 160hp and 200hp on airplanes that we owned. We did not
have an airplane with a gas 180hp engine to gather performance data
from. We still don't, so we will not provide the Economic Comparison
for the 180hp engines until we have the 180hp gas engine data. It is
safe to assume that the savings with the 180hp DeltaHawk models will
be between the other two models.
