Equipped with a 100 hp Continental O-200 engine, the Lancer easily outflew anything powered by the same engine and generated intense interest at Oshkosh '85. However, a naming conflict forced the design to be re-christened, finally going on sale in 1985 as the Lancair 200 .

By the 1960s turbocharging and fuel injection arrived in general aviation and the company's IO-520 series came to dominate the market. [citation needed] In 1965, Ryan Aeronautical acquired a 50% stake in Continental Motors. [10] In 1969, Teledyne Incorporated acquired ...
A limited number of airworthy examples can be found in both the United States and New Zealand. The most widely produced variant of the Bo 208 is the Bo 208C, which used a Continental O-200-A flat-four-cylinder air-cooled piston engine giving 75 kW (100 HP). A number of O-200 engines installed on Juniors were licence-built by Rolls-Royce in England.
Modernized version of the 601, with a larger cockpit, a larger canopy with more headroom, swept-back fin and rudder and engine options that include the 120 hp (89 kW) Jabiru 3300, 100 hp (75 kW) Continental O-200 and 100 hp (75 kW) Rotax 912ULS. One hundred had been completed and flown by December 2011. [1] [37] [38] Zenith CH 650E
The Champion 402 Lancer is a twin-engine trainer produced by Champion Aircraft, a high-wing monoplane based on the tricycle gear Champion 7FC Tri-Traveler, but with wing-mounted Continental O-200-A engines. [3] The Lancer first flew in 1961 and production began in 1963. [4]
Délémontez based the new design on his three–four seat Jodel Ambassadeur, (also being built by SAN), with a reduced span wing and shorter fuselage. [2] [3] The new aircraft, the D.150 Mascaret - named after a tidal bore [3] first flew on 2 June 1962, production beginning in 1963. [2] SAN Jodel D.150 Mascaret (built 1962)
The standard engine used for competition is the 100 hp (75 kW) Continental O-200, while other, lower-powered engines can be used for recreational flying, including the other small Continental A65 and Continental C90. Cassutt Aircraft discourages the use of auto conversions or larger Lycoming engines.
