I heard a rumor last night that Tecnam is going to start building Bravos with wing struts because of a need to beef up the wing structure due to heavy use of the Bravos in flight instruction. Does anyone know any more about this?

Replacement Batteries
A couple of the Bravos I have seen here in the US (including mine) came from the factory with EuroStart batteries, a brand apparently not available in this country. I replaced mine about 8 months ago with a readily available PowerSonic PS-12180 motorcycle battery which fit perfectly into the battery box. It's a lot cheaper than the equivalent Odyssey battery, and so far has worked out really well. I found I had to replace my battery when I tried to start my engine with a low battery voltage and blew the master fuse (a situation covered in other thread). The 2-year-old EuroStart battery would not hold a charge well. We'll see how well the PowerSonic does in that regard when I can't fly very often this winter (we're getting about 9 inches of snow right now!)

Actually the "rumor" came from the rep at a Tecnam Service Center - that's why I took it seriously.
