The Turbine A/C

  • Canadian kit, made by D&L Models; classified as a "Sport Jet" that faintly resembles an F-20 or F-5 Aggressor.
  • Powered by a RAM 750 Turbine engine that puts out 17.5 lbs. of thrust at 130,000 RPM.
  • Ready-to-fly "dry" weight is 13 lb., 15 oz.
  • The A/C engine combination could well exceed 300 mph, but it is not known if the airframe would stay together at that speed.

  • Has air retracts and brakes.
