thats an easy one!
Space Shuttle wasnt turbine powered!
Not at all true! It was indeed relevant to the Jets Forum as each Orbiter has two or three (I forget) APUs (Auxilliary Power Units) turbines that run on hydrazine to supply hydrualic pressure during ascent and re-entry. The Shuttle is indeed (at least partially) turbine powered.

Therefore any Shuttle discussions ARE relevant here.
