Well Chad I guess we can't keep it quiet any longer, might as well come out of the hangar. :mrgreen:

Aviation's very own odd couple hang a turbo-subie on a ch-701.

I noticed there were no MOVING pictures of Frankenplane. I'd like to see that thing takeoff.

What I want to know is how in the ^%&$ did the decision get made to have THREE turbos?!?!?!?! How did that conversation go?? Yeah we could go with something "traditional" like a twin turbo setup, but let's throw caution to the wind and throw a third on there for that little sumthin' extra :)

Chad, you are a rebel!!! Just kiddin', buddy!

Scott!! We're really busted this time! :o

Come one guys, I still think it would have worked better with 4 turbos. Keep more even pressure that way. :wink:

Why use four? just use one bigger turbo. ;-)

I can see it now... after having finished the airplane with only 2 turbos, Chad looks at Scott and says, "You know what this thing needs?"

Scott responds, "More Cowbell!!!"
