Default RE: Keeping engine clean

I mistakenly purchased a LA46 for a Sig Spacewalker II .40... the plane came out just under 9lbs AUW(!!).

Big mistake!

The LA46 ended up going into a .32 sized Extra, turning that into a wonderfully overpowered plane.

The light weight design of the LA46 let the plane balance out perfectly even though it originally called for a smaller engine.

That engine never misses a beat too.

They are great engines when properly sized for the plane they are going into.
