Rotax Flying and Safety Club (RFSC) instructor Jorge Tavio will provide an overview of the Rotax 915 iS.

Special emphasis will be on proper installation, maintenance, and inspection. Qualifies for FAA WINGS and AMT credit.

On the contrary . . . I was not too impressed with the webinar. Very disjointed, too much time spent on Rotax history and excursions into the weeds.
I was hoping to learn how the engine operated, function of components . . . how they work together, and some traveling tips on how to take care of it. Little of that was covered. Lots of data on nuts and bolts though. IMHO, too much on the nuts and bolts.
