Wanted Continental C90 Engine or decent rebuild shop

The C90 in our Jodel D120 pretty much expired yesterday, pilot and plane ok thankfully. So any leads to finding a replacement engine or and recommendations of a decent rebuild shop are welcomed.
Cheers

Have you tried Pete Smoothy at Airworld UK? Your installation sounds similar to our Jodel, we worked out that it uses some old Citroen or Renault brake parts. edit just noticed that mb beat me to it! agree if the brakes are the same as our Jodel then they are a pain to bleed and can lead you into th...

Sindlinger Hurricane Plan set

Complete original Plan set and build book for this 5/8ths scale wooden hurricane replica for sale. Was hanging onto these rare plans in the hope I would be able to build one one day, but realised I will not have the time or space in the forseeable future. So if anybody who has more time and space th...

Hi Just wondering if anybody is building a Sonex at the moment and how they are finding the kit as it's one of the aircraft that is on my list of possibilities for a home build project. Also does anybody know if you can buy sub-kits over here like you can in the US? I've e-mailed Silver Fern but not...

They look like a cheapish and practical way of having replica fighter for fun bimbles in the summer eveni...

Hi all Thanks for the info so far, I've seen the Italian one - looks like a good aircraft! I'm so suprised that given the historic provenance of the Hurricane and the fact that Fred Sindlinger drew up the plans in the '70s there are still so few flying worldwide and none in this country! Hypothetica...

Hi all, first off I'm a regular lurker, but a very infrequent poster on these forums if you're wondering why you've not seen my name before! Anyway I was wondering if anybody knew if anybody in the UK has or is building a Sindlinger Hurricane? apparently there were quite a few sets of plans sold int...

I've been watching this aircraft with interest over the last few months with a view to maybe building one eventually. It's certainly a really good looking and performing aircraft and I can't wait to see a UK example fly. I was just wondering what the current state of play is with LAA engineering and...
