"RST Engineering" wrote in message ... I'll be a sumbitch, you are right. Here ya go... Noted French pilot Nicolas Charmont has installed 2 AMT Olympus turbines in his Cri Cri together with AMT on-board automatic start-up units and individual EDT's. The Cri Cri weighs 170 Kg, and should have enhanced performance withover 36 Kg of thrust available. The Cri Cri has made his maiden flight in the weekeind of 7-8 March. Top speed at this flight was 240 km/hour (150 mph). Flying with only one engine the speed is still 160 km/hour (100mph). You have never seen that before? That has been posted -many- times before. Among the favorite debates, is how long the TBO is. Short, I think, in the almost hundred hour range. Also, they are tremendous fuel hogs. To fly a medium range, you would not have enough weight left (after fuel) to bring the pilot along. It would be an interesting way to log multi and jet time. g -- Jim in NC
