Euro imports included the Tecnam, Pioneer 200 and 300, Flysynthesis Storch, Esqual and the big Columbia. A good variety of accessories and equipment was on show Rotec Engineering displayed its 7-cylinder radial engine on, not one, but two award-winning aircraft, as well revealing its 150 hp 9-cylinder engine featuring cast alloy heads. A variety of forums and workshops on such topics as electronic panels, engine installation, avionics, weight and balance, building an aircraft and fabric covering were of great interest to members who were looking at building or maintaining one of the many new types of recreational aircraft now available. It was particularly pleasing to see the variety and sophistication of so many innovative Australian-designed and produced products such as radios, engines, cleaners, and aircraft kits.
