Our man Jeff Spitzer's airplane made the front page of the
LA Times business section. Not only that it helped
win the war in Afghanistan. Jeff was also the designer
of the Moller rotary engine. Jeff wanted to put a rotary
in the Predator instead of the Rotax 914 turbo but they would not 
let him do it.

Note the insulation on the exhaust pipes to conserve
the heat energy for the turbo. A predator with a turbo
Rotax was able to reach 57,000 feet.

We are proud of you Jeff.
