OK. This can go on forever but is not related to LSA in any way. We have lost member over this junk mail and it is doing nothing to help the group better understand Light Sport better or deal with the reality of it.

 

Please let us get back on track here.

 

Members we haven't lost are thinking about it and I don't like to see someone leave over a couple people monopolizing a useless subject.

Abid,

 

I appreciate your opinion and I can accept and respect that as your opinion however I also respectfully disagree.

 

Out of curiousity, why do you say "turbine engines will not be very efficient on LSA"? I don't agree but I'd like to hear why you think that.

 

My opinion:

We have many examples today of successfull power technology that can be scaled up or down to fit any need. Gas Turbine is only one. We know that the weight to power ratio fits the aviation application. We have working examples of heat recovery and noise elimination that would be conducive to light aviation (for lack of a better term for GA and LSA and UL) and even heavy aviation. If we combined just the knowledge and technology we already have and scaled it to fit the application, I believe we can have a far more advanced power unit than we presently have and many varieties. We have few choices today and that shouldn't be the case.   

I can list what we have, or what I know we have. You may know of more.

If we were then to take that list and scale each technology to the size, weight and power that we need for a given aircraft (1, 2, or 4 place aircraft) we would see that we far more choices than are available today.
