Joe,
Call, don't email, call Robert Baslee... He has flown at least one rotec engine... and had another in a crate the last time I was there. His experience is much more recent than that quoted on the website. Robert is pretty straight forward. You can get his phone number from the Airdrome Airplanes website (
Airdrome Aeroplanes ~ Holden, MO ~ Airdrome Homepage)
You could also call the folks at the AIM schools that are building WWI replicas... several of them are using Rotec engines and have received delivery of them.
My concern with the website you referenced is its age... the info comes from 2004 & 2005.
