The guys at Deltahawk already have an STC for their 180hp platform and will be getting it for 200hp & 235hp, expected at any time. They are a US based company. I am suspect of the Australian firm getting an STC with a turbine. That would likely remove a 20K ceiling restriction we have on them now and require a high altitude endorsement. I would also not want to give up 50hp over what I have now. I'd gain another 20hp with the DHK variant and long service life. No electronics and way fewer moving components to fail. I think it will be well received across the entire GA spectrum. If Cali keeps pushing their no emissions agenda, you won't be able to buy AV gas at some point and will be forced to find alternative fuel pistons. It would be cool on startup though to have the turbine. I just don't see that one happening anytime soon.
