Default Micro-Turbojet Article

Hi Jet Guys,

It’s my pleasure to have an article I’ve been working on regarding micro-turbjet engines published on RCU. It covers some history along with current activity in the development and use of such engines. My fascination with micro-turbojets led me to delve into the subject a bit, and I’ve learned some things that might be new information or of interest to you as well. If you read through my piece, I hope you enjoy it.

Thanks. And thanks to RCU for posting it.

Sincerely,
Paul

Thanks for the great article. To some extent, I remembered all of the milestones that you referenced. Until reading about them all in one place, I never realized that it has been a 20 year process. Seems much more recent. I must have gotten 20 years older too... What a shock!

Hey Paul,

Super article! How is your A10 coming along? Are you posting new pics on your website? Hope to see you at Lake Wales.

Regards, Bill

CFII1974 & OmegaDot,

Thanks for your comments. I'm glad you found the article interesting. 20 years does go by much too quickly, but it's fairly amazing what takes place in that relatively short period.

Hey Bill,

Thanks for the note, and thanks for reading the article. Progress on the A-10 is slow, but should pick up pace soon. My son and I will be at Lake Wales, as spectators only unfortunately. Someday we'll be participants!
