I have come to a decision to sell my coot project. This is a complete
coot less prop. I took it down to the hull and replaced all the steel
including new spar straps. I have a rotary engine and a Welter built
redrive that Ken Welter flew his coot with. The pylon has not been
modified from the original Continental engine the this coot first few
with. The coot needs complete reassembly and comes with a complete set
of plans. I have many pics through all stages. Serious inquirys only
please. You could not buy the parts you need to build this for what I
will sell it for. Arnold Norton

  I am forwarding this from the Coot list, Arnold Norton is selling
his coot project which includes a 12a engine and 2.95 redrive package
that I flew on my coot for about 150 hrs and is compleat as I flew it
with exception that it need the upper section of the intake manifold
from Racing Beat, it comes with a 48 dcoe Weber, some my balk at the
12a engine but I am very impressed with them and may build a 12a
p-port engine for my coot, if you turn it 500 rpm higher they will
develop the same power as the 13b and they are very reliable with the
short 3mm apex seals.

  The plane was a compleat flying plane when the previous owner
pulled the Continental engine off and sold it when hydrogen
embrittlement from cad plating was found in some of the controls,
Arnold has disassembled the plane for inspection replacement of bad
parts and just need to be reassembled and the pylon modified for the
rotary.
  This would be a quick cheep way to get in the air with a rotary as
one could easily be flying by summer, he is asking $6000 for
everything and I think he will split the package up if you just want
the engine package.
