It's so loud. Can you put a silencer on it? I'm just sayin to me "quiet" is part of the whole sailplane attraction.

Hmmm.
Long Wings Single jet engine Ability for high altitude flights Did the ghost of Kelly Johnson aid in the design of this aircraft? Ray |

First jet sailplane was the Fouga CM8 R13 Cyclone which flew in 1949: https://minijets.org/fr/100-150/turb...8-r13-cyclone/ Maybe Kelly Johnson was influenced by it... Marc |

The Sylphe flew in 1949, but after a Hutter with a BMW turbine, also in 1949. Neither was particularly successful, owing to the primitive turbine engines of the day. But, ya' gotta start somewhere!
