RE: B-52 at Wren`s site
You know, there is nothing keeping anyone in the U.S. from building and flying a model like that B-52. You would just have to arrange for a place to fly it. All you would be missing is AMA insurance coverage.

Did you say that the C17 has been test flown? I've been following his thread for a while now, and have waiting a long time to see or hear about the flight!

The B52 has 8 Wren 54 Auto start turbines, if you look else where on the Wren site you will see other pictures of the engines being tested etc.
It is an amazing model!
