Diamond trying to secure parts, so that I can operate the engine I have
through its life. I don't think he will change his mind (Maybe he just
didn't like my looks) . Harry
Well then get together with Francois and/or Hugo and make them the
European front men :)
I'll bet you could sell stock to US rotor heads.
When you get that all squared away I have some suggestions for improving
the Midwest
2 rotor. I am sure Francois could figure out how to run it on heavy fuel.

Harry,
you might as well invest with Mistral/or become an equal partner - make the
condition that they have to aquire Diamond which would give "your new
company" a complete certified engine, which is already on the market and the
future market for the upper powerlevels as well!
This way Mistral can claim to already operate a certified engine.
They have the know-how how to change to liquid cooling and kerosine burning
in a first step to enhance the Mid-West and squeeze a couple more hp out of
it.
Imagine an aviation certified rotary line from 35hp (...or what does the
single Rotor?) to potentially 600 hp on the other end (.....or even more,
depending where the weight/cost/hp braking point between turbines and the
rotary will be...:)
I wish I had the spare to invest in Mistral!! :)
