While the jets are interesting, the trailer is REALLY
interesting. Take a look. http://personales.ya.com/jetcatspain...scala_real.htm I've never seen a trailer like that. Does anyone know anything about it?

The pictures ( www.genesisflyers.com ) showing my Genesis2 with a "jet
turbine" is a JetCat P200 mockup. As it looks now I will use a new Swedish jet turbine developed solely for sailplanes. The major advantage with this is that it starts on Jet A1 fuel (no starting gas). The engine(s) will be 100% retractable into the fuselage when not used. Magnus "Slingsby" skrev i meddelandet om...

Magnus Nice idea, especially if it easily can self start. Try to design it so that when the engines extend a cover also comes up to close the hatch. That way you don't have the added drag of a large hole in the fuselage.

Yes it can. One start button and a throttle, that's it. 12-15 s. from
pushing the button to full thrust. I will use the original hatch both when the engine is inside and outside. "Slingsby" skrev i meddelandet om... "Magnus Johansson" wrote in message ...

Maybe they should have purchased a better model self launcher then they wouldn't have to add the jet engines ;-) "Marc Ramsey" wrote in message ...
