Subaru (converted) EA-81

23 aircraft on the U.S. register carry a Subaru (converted) EA-81 engine, rated at about 100 horsepower. The Brantley Gerald L HMO-380 FLYING FLEA is the model most often fitted with it (1 aircraft). The aircraft carrying it were built between 1993 and 2025.

The FAA records engines by code, usually at the level of a series ("O-320 series") rather than the exact variant; this page gathers every FAA code that reads as Subaru (converted) EA-81. FAA spelling: EA-81.

Fuel: 100LL avgas; the maker also approves Car gasoline (mogas), UL91 unleaded avgas, UL94 unleaded avgas.
