any good rotary mechanics in europe. i am in the miltary and live in japan rite now but will be going to eurpoe next year. i would like to bring my FC with a 20b conversion but never really heard about a rotary scene over there. not only that but incase i need parts or something it would be convenient.

Well I was the only FC in Germany at the time I thing lol. I was there stationed in Baumholder and I had seen only 1 FB and that was in Ramstein airbase belonging to a PR lol. I left him a note and he had told me that rotaries in Germany were extremly rare. You will have a fun time running in the autobahn and cruising the cities since I recall. My FC was looked at alot

I picked up a 91 FC from another soldier here. I had broke a sensor and went to look for it from the dealer and they sent the rotary mechanic out to figure out which one it was and all he could do is look at the intake I have on it and state in german how the air pump inlet wasn't connected to anything and looked as if he knew nothing of an FC motor. I don't trust those guys at all and do all my own work. I wish it was easier to find a knowledgeable mechanic here.

Still over 600 km from Munich, damn! Would like to talk to you. Do you still have the German mobile phone number?

If you should be near Munich, drop me a line.
