This will occur once extremely high oil consumption has been lowered to under 0.1 U.S. quart per hour of opera- tion. Fuel consumption depends on the used propeller and actual engine load so the above values are not precise figures. BENCH AND FIELD TESTING The two-rotor Geiger A2-74 engine is installed in a European UL, a Flight Design CT (almost identical to a U.S. Light Sport Aircraft version). Both engines are continu- ously running on a Geiger dyno 24/7 and already went airborne; the 50-hp engine on board a Fresh Breeze weight shifted trike, and the 100PS engine aboard a Flight Design CT. PRICING The price of the smaller, 50-hp engine will be $7,400 (6,900 Euro); the bigger, 100-hp will cost $12,800 (11,900 Euro), all prices VAT excluded. Engines can be indi- vidually configured but normally will be delivered complete, ready to be installed, with electric, oil, and fuel systems. The first batch of 100 engines is in production and the delivery of the first engines from a serial production is scheduled for next few months. The distribution network is still being built and Geiger Motors is look- ing for interested distributors. Geiger's intention is to serve OEMs, and local dis- tributors will serve local markets.
