Paul,

    I happen to run across this incident involving N20 and thought I would
send you the URL.  Clearly the 15 lb bottle of Nitrous Oxide must have found
a fuel, but in any case, it could certainly give one pause if considering it
for aircraft use - hell, it would give you pause even if considering it for
a tank engine.  look at the photos on the tremendous damage it caused. You
may want to consider passing this along to rotory list as I know one
individual is/has used N 20.
