Pioneer engine in the industry. I personally picked up Jacques (the J in JPX) from Palm Beach International airport in 1991 (or maybe 1992) and drove him to Frank Tiano's hobby shop for the first test run. It was run on a propane tank borrowed from MY GRILL ;-) and we borrowed a compressed air tank from my girlfriend's employer at the time. We had the engine running less than an hour after Jacques came through customs because we were all so excited. The engine was flown that same week in a Byron F-16 as a demo at Top Gun and blew everyone away, including BV who immediately sat down with Jacques to make a deal to work them into his line....the rest, as they say, is history!
