Those aircraft are to old to have these modern blades. Unless they have been repowered with engines carrying dash numbers higher then -21.
pfft..like thats hard to figure out...you find the "dump fuel" lever and start making sweet sweet hand loving to it as you pump it up and down...
i am not familiar with this method... but it sounds MUCH more fun than my way:
throttles, bottles, batteries, seat safe(ejection seat if so equipped(yes fighter/bombers...duh))
and if i have a chance to dump fuel on innocent bystanders again...how could i say no to that?
if i can squeeze it in...i'll try to fly as low and slow as possible while doing it...get that badass firetail...you know what im talking about...
twinks man, sometimes i wonder if you actually do ANYTHING in life besides look up funny pics... i spend ALL day at work on the web and i have never seen so much great stuff from one person
hells yeah there is.... you access it by returning to OEM fuel control via the PCM.
then it is necessary to remove the catalytic convertor.
last, find the APV around 7200rpms.... and dance all over it
OH!!!! wait.... dont let anyone stand even relatively behind the exhaust tips during a fuel dump in action.
unless of course you like the smell of burning hair and are blood relation to hannibal lecter

Axial Flow Project dead?
Sorry, don't visit the site as often, and can't see wading through the several 100's of posts since last I tried to follow the development (or lack thereof) of the Axial Flow project for the Rx8.
I've still held on the the 04 Rx8 despite the purchase of a Porsche Cayamn in 06. We used the Rx8 to do the OneLap of America in May of 2006. Boy, it would have been nice to have had even a paltry 40-50 additional horses for that event. Every timed stage basically starts (i.e. everything begins as a standing start) as a drag race to the 1st corner. I'm now, somewhat sadly, down to 2/3rds of the car, kept the "R" and the "8" but dropped the small "x"
Still "mid-engined" biased chasis balance & performance.
So what's the current state of affairs, or is there a summary page to this saga? Is there simply no hope for a reasonable, relaible bhp boost for the Rensis?
Cheers, mlp
