A poor shot but worth uploading this strange concoction of an aircraft. A gentleman by the name of Pohl decided he wanted to replace the O-360 engine in his Cessna Cardinal with the IO-360 as used in the Cardinal RG. Since a proper modification would be very expensive to certify he went the amateur built route. The only obvious external differences are the cowling helmets to accommodate the new engine. Transport Canada have no interest in recording the original airframe serial number so it is not possible to identify the source Cardinal. Lethbridge (CYQL) based in 2023.
