Update on engine faults with ROTAX carburetor engines

Around a year ago, the first faults and numerous incidents with ROTAX carburetor engines emerged. These were characterized by mysterious power losses, particularly during the take-off phase in powered aircraft and ULs with carburetor engines from the 912 S/ULS and 914 series. Since then, the FOCA, together with specialists from EASA and the manufacturer, has collected hundreds of pieces of data in order to get to the bottom of the causes. Although possible causes and possible solutions have recently been discussed in the relevant aviation magazines, further data collection is required for a more in-depth analysis as well as measurements and tests.
