The award was presented at the AERO Friedrichshafen Air Show in Germany. “To be awarded as the best in the whole lightsport aviation industry in terms of powertrain concept for our brand new Rotax 915 iS aircraft engine is an honour especially because the engine is available on the market only since 2018”, said Thomas Uhr, General Manager BRP-Rotax, Vice President Powertrain BRP and R&D / Operations Lynx. “Thank you to the readership for their commitment to our aircraft engines.”

“We do our best to deliver the most advanced aircraft engine technology to our customers hence Rotax aircraft engines are already industry leaders in their respective segments”, said Uhr. “With the already flying Rotax 915 iS aircraft engine we will push the innovation level even higher.”
