Default Building a Custum Made Speed Plane

Hi guys,

After reading some posts here about an all out speed plane i decided to try to doing one.

I'm a mechanical engineer teacher, i'm a Catia V5 specialist and i have full access to CNC mill and lathe and also to high end CFD programm called Fluent.

So my goal is to make a plug for a fuse. And after that simply sell it to everyone that helped here to make that plane for about the price of the material. I dont want to make $$$ with that, just having fun.

To make the fuse available to 'everyone' i want to built it around a powerfull and available engine, but not a DF one. So i think everyone his thinking about a Jett engine and it's ok with me.

So the first question is, wich engine do we want to put in it?? A Jett FIRE engine, but wich one???

Thx for the inputs.
