Tomcats need all that thrust to carry all that excess WEIGHT.....try 28,000 in
a 19,000 lb airplane....baby.
OK, to make it proportional for an RV you would need about 1000 hp in a 950 lb
airplane...plus or minus...

...ah the age old arguments: Air Superiority vs Point Defense and carrier
based vs land based fighters. I don't think we'll solve that one here.
On a more friendly and serious note... Does anyone out there need to have
any new ideas for speed mods wind tunnel tested. My brother is an
aeroengineering professor and is looking for a project for some of his grad
students to test in a full scale wind tunnel. Any of you speed demons out
there contact me directly at pukndg@mindspring.com.
Cheers,
Hank

Looking for the "Orndorff's RV6 Finishing Video." Any one want to loan theirs
or offer for sale? Already have the RV6 Quick build series 1.2 & 3. Wish this
finishing video was for the RV4, but alas, time marches on.
