The Mooney Porsche
Anyone know much about the Mooney with the Porsche engine? I'm curious, did they use something like the twin magnetos like a general aviation airplane? And what about the 911's dry sump - do airplanes have dry sumps?
Saw a Mooney fly over me in Fullerton and it got me to thinking - I had heard of this Porsche engined plane long before I knew much about a 911 - now the details got me wondering!
Are any still in use? Was it a good plane? In general, aren't automobile engines frowned on in airplanes?
