Courtesy of Ioan Coriolan Garboni, 7-17-08 My name is Ioan Coriolan Garboni, and I am president of ( FACT) Foundation Academic Cultural Timisoara. We constructed the replica of the Vuia I . This replica belongs to our organization, FACT. We tried to make it with the same parameters that Vuia had to his original one. This replica has a 25 HP. Rotax engine, and we still have problems with the reductor of speed at the propeller. Our replica was in Montesson in 2006 and also we had a circuit in Romanian cities and European cities. For more information, you can contact me at my address, fact@xnet.com, or visit our webpage, Foundation Academic Cultural Timisoara Sincerely yours Ioan Coriolan Garboni |
Last year, 2006, was the centennial of Vuia's first flight, and the replica was taken on an itinerary exposition throughout Romania and abroad." |
