Maybe SU has stopped making carbs, but apparantly Stromberg Zenith has not.
Find a September 1994 issue of Popular Mechanics. There is an article on a
trainer aircraft made in Germany, the Katana. The text mentions there is no
mixture control on the panel like most carburetted aircraft, because "it has
a carb which automatically compensates for altitude". The picture of the
engine shows what appears to be a CD175 perched right in the middle! Maybe
a similar carb built under license in either Germany or Austria, as the plane
has Austrian registration numbers.
The sun never sets!
