Alex, that's 11 questions and a request, offset by one substantive
comment and one suggestion. Remember upload/download quotas on

The Spike design is a completely clean sheet of paper. Concepts that
worked well on KISS will be used, anything that can be improved will
be. No hardware from KISS will be used on Spike. There is only one
KISS airframe, which undergoes modifications for 1/2/3/3+ versions.
We plan to fly KISS aga

Did you wind up going with DynaTurn, or some other place? Did you change
to 316 SS, or stick with the more unusual alloy?

Outsourced engines for POGO and Spike? If possible I would like to see the
drawings for the POGO engine, I might be able to give some ideas on
producabilty (unless you have already sent them out to the shop). Last drawing
I saw of Spike was concept only.
IIRC Spike was to initially use the

Actually, it's a problem that will need to be solved for both.

OK. Let's find out. :-)

I agree. What I want to do is formally establish POGO as our first
priority, and make the Centenn

There is something *very* wrong if we can't work two projects
Are there any detailed drawings that could be used for the actual
building of POGO? I'm talking about drawings you could hand to a
machinist and say "build this with these tolerances". Are there
drawings for the flight electronics and mounting details, interfaces and
so on? I'm not sure of current

Ditto to most of what Henry and Ian said, though there is still some
legitimate physics being done on non-geometrical interpretations of the
general relativity equations in efforts to create a self-consistent
mathematical theory embracing both relativity and quantum mechanics. Don'

Hmmm... that's a good question whether it will or not: what
conflicts exist between the two projects that would interfere
with their simultaneous progress?

Basically, it's a flat sheet that you can fold into whatever shape.

Guys,
A year or two ago, Ian Kluft suggested that the 100th anniversary of
the Wright brothers' flight at Kitty Hawk would be a good day to fly a
Wright Square, defined as a Conrad Sqaure 112 feet on a side. We all
agreed that that was a worthy goal, and agreed to the deadline. We
all thought we
