I just viewed the ad on ebay (I apologize, I should have done so before), but stand by what I was told by the current STC owner. I did not ask specifically about the 1970 model, but certainly would call the STC owner (after having the seller send me a copy of the documentation) to confirm all is correct. Don't get me wrong, I would love more power for climb/aerobatics here in the Central Plains summers. I just don't want to be a test pilot of what could be an unapproved aircraft (remember Catherine's comments at Clinton this year), nor have my insurance company deny a claim (I've had two engine failures/crashes this past year, both paid) if something were to happen to the aircraft. Besides, although it may be blasphemy, for $50m plus you can get a Decathlon which is a much better performing aerobatic aircraft. Now I'll hear it!
