The Aircraft Bluebook Price Digest is a quarterly print publication by Informa (also available on CD-ROM) that was established in the 1950s. It identifies and prices more than 3,000 used general aviation aircraft and helicopter make and model-years available in the United States. Prices reflect historical data and cannot, therefore, take into ...
The design is a four-cylinder, two-stroke, piston diesel engine, in an inverted-V configuration, with turbocharging and supercharging, mechanical fuel injection, liquid cooling, direct drive. It can run on Jet-A or sustainable aviation fuel. The manufacturer claims that it has "40 percent fewer moving parts than other engines in its category ...
The range comprises three radial engines, namely: a "cross-4"; a twin-row "cross-8"; and a V-twin. [3] As yet, there are no plans for a 3-cylinder version. The AOPA website explains the "cross-4" ZO 01A as follows: "The radial design was chosen for its ability to be effectively air-cooled and 100% balanced at all rpm with a simple counterweight ...
The SMA SR305-230 is an air/oil-cooled, horizontally opposed, four-cylinder, four-stroke, diesel piston aircraft engine producing 170 kW (227 hp). The engine is manufactured by SMA Engines, and is currently the only product of this French company.
[2] [3] AOPA exists to serve the interests of its members as aircraft owners and pilots and to promote the economy, safety, utility, and popularity of flight in general aviation aircraft. [ 4 ] With 384,915 members in 2012, AOPA is the largest aviation association in the world, although it had decreased in membership from 414,224 in 2010, a ...
An aircraft flight manual (AFM) is a paper book or electronic information set containing information required to operate an aircraft of certain type or particular aircraft of that type (each AFM is tailored for a specific aircraft, though aircraft of the same type naturally have very similar AFMs). The information within an AFM is also referred ...

The designer determined that since maximum continuous power output (65.3 kW [2]) was to be developed at only 2800 rpm, the extra weight and complexity of overhead valves (OHV) would be superfluous. The resulting engine is compact and lightweight, with a dry weight of 58 kg (128 lb), [ 2 ] and a maximum power-to-weight ratio of 1.09 kW/kg (wet ...
