Michel Moreau flies a Q2 that has been evolving over the years. It is currently undergoing major surgery with the replacement of the 65 HP Revmaster engine (a Volkswagen conversion) with a Jabiru 2200 that delivers 80 HP. He expects an improvement in reliability, a 60 pound weight loss and increased performance.
Michel has flown his Q2 all the way to Abbotsford, BC and has been to Oshkosh several times.

Installation
of the new Jabiru 2200 with a custom-made engine mount
The new cowling is significantly different from the original, since
Michel had to move the much lighter Jabiru engine forward to maintain
balance. It should also reduce cooling drag and improve cruise speed.
An update appeared in our October
2004 newsletter.
