What bad news! I have not heard from John - but he recently sent an email and photos of his completed project - and was so happy to have finally finished building and now flying. John had a Crossflow Subaru (300hp??) engine. He had a devil of a time getting everything straight with Crossflow - and at one time was considering abandoning the Subaru engine for something else. I know nothing about the incident. I had hoped to talk with John about his experiences with the Crossflow - because Crossflow has a terrible reputation for delivering products that do not work; backed by poor customer service. If the forced landing is because of the engine, I'm sure John will have stories to tell.
