Hey Ron
I just got back from san jose. If i had your number i could have stopped by on the way back down. What kind of aircraft do they have in your museum up there? I always thought about stopping by there all the times i have passed through.

On the other hand, Tam called me when i was halfway back home. I could have stopped in at his shop if he had called an hour earlier. We discussed fan and wheel setups. He will be sending me down a fan so i can start on the mold for the inlet. He said his fan weighs in at 1.3lbs, 6s I believe 1.6lbs x's that by 2 and you get about 6 lbs. Our turbax setup is about twice the weight and accounted for just about the other half of the weight of the A10. He said the exhaust is good at about 75mm on his fan.
