Interesting, Oscar. Before finally fitting a Jab 2.2 I was hung up on the fear of glazing the bores. The little Jodel D-9 was first flown with 27 hp and most have a VW putting out 40-60 hp, so I was expecting to be cruising at about 2300 rpm.We're told that's a bad rev band for a Jab, so mine gets 2800. I have forgotten about glazing. So far so good.
I am interested in a Jodel D9.My dear departed dad used to take me flying in his Jodel D120 in the UK.To buy one is a first preference .I am also considering building one although all my skills are in metalworking I think a wood project would be good thereapy after a lifetime with metal.

Any info at all would be appreciated.
