Default RE: P70SE or P100

Hi Vin:

29 lbs might be elfin magic if in fact, case size is not increased......installed thrust in my BARF/P-70 with bypass is 16.5-17.0 lbs on my fish scale at 70-80 deg.......that would mean another 12 lbs of thrust from presumed new compressor/diffuser/combustor design.

The guys at Wren have succeeded in going from 70 newts in the SS to 100 in the same case and same Max RPM.....I suspect the P-100 will be similar.....even at 22 lbs, if they improve the spool time so it is more like the 120/160 SE/SX models, they will have winner.

Merry Christmas to you and Joe.....
