You have made my day G. Waiting for rains to stop and sitting here unable
to go to hanger to work on my conventially powered, 200 mph, 6 gph,
experimental hombuilt plane project's list of remaining items to go.
Although well past the 90% where it looks like a plane stage (and 90% to go
as the joke goes), the list is still huge when detailed and somewhat
discouraging considering effort/time remaining to be spent. Details take
motre time/effort than I ever imagined.
Now if you want to put that fuel burning 85# jet engine on a "X" winged
fuselage with two sitting tandem with twin tail booms and retracable
tricycle gear, count me in.
Thanks again, Dick

With an 85-lb jet engine, I should be able to come up with a
two-seater, single engine glider that would be much more affordable and
efficient than the eclipse jet. This plane would be ideal for
pilot/owners who want to fly cross-country in their own jet. Forget 3.6
million, or 850000 dollar price tag. Why not go for a 250,000 dollar
price tag and for a plane that doesn't need a parachute? Any investors
out there? I could build the first prototype for the price of one
eclipse jet.
I have an electrical engineer and a mechanical engineer and I myself am
a geometrical designer. I will design the shape of the plane and
coordinate the various tasks, the electrical engineer will design super
efficient electronic power saving components and the mechanical
engineer will handle the machine parts, tooling, and plastic molding.
We have better- than -DSP electronic motor control technology.
Please let me know if you want to be involved.
