RV-12 forced landing, Gold Coast

Recommended Posts

I have just seen on the RV site that the owner says that there was oil, fuel and coolant, but that there is a lot of copper pieces in the oil. he suspects bearing failure and the engine has gone to Rotax dealer in Melbourne.

"...oil, fuel, and coolant"...makes me think of the add"...oil's aint oil's"

 

IF it was not the oil I personally would be very interested in what went wrong because:

 

1. I only own Rotax powered aircraft,

 

2. It is a very uncommon problem for Rotax.

But yet no mention from the owner of what type of oil was used !! ??..which is possibly the key to what may have happened with this one .....................................Maj....
