Yes, the HKS is a flat twin. It never caught on in microlights. Must have been better than the Cuyuna 430 in my Eagle though. How time flies!

Chevvron,
I wonder if the 4 stroke 2 cylinder engine you remember was an HKS. Cyclone was the importer and I know they fitted it to the AX2000, which succeeded the AX3.

Hi PC,

I don't doubt what you say. All I am saying is that it was not the aircraft registration, it its callsign. The registration marks would only have been under the wing only. I know how it worksthere,...
