To the keeper of the knowledge,

I greatly appreciate the many articles.  I am currently researching the web
for the components to start building my Homebuilt.  I have narrowed down the
aircraft to 3 or 4 kits.  I truly looking for unique, as well as reliable
power plant.  The Wankel has always been an interest.

I would like to join the news letter and probably get the CD soon.

A question:
How far have you gotten on the compound turbo arrangement?  I have toyed
with the idea for my ground vehicle for years.

Look forward to hearing from you,

Not far Glenn. I think most people believe the development effort is not worth
the potential 20% improvement in power and efficiency with no increase in cooling
system capacity required BTW :-) 

BTW I wonder what the R3350 TC would do with a PIC microcomputer
controlling the power turbines? :-)
