             It was a bad idea to begin with because the power required   
   is so great, a B-50 with four R-4360s is equivalent to at least   
   12,000 horsepower or 10 megawatts and the new big 2-engine   
   airliners are ten times that.   
      
             I think the reactor tested in a B-36 was less than   
   5 megawatts, sounds like a lot, but nowhere near enough.

             Maybe, but the number of self-inconsistencies makes   
   me wonder, I suspect that when the competition between   
   the 5 or 6 companies was going on, Lockheed was using   
   the model of the A-12/SR-71, and at some point in 1976   
   or 1977 went to the flat surfaces.   
      
            My name is the last reference on the list of patents   
   on the second page of the reissue patent, if there would   
   not have been security involved I think Lockheed would   
   have been forced to negotiate splitting royalties with me   
   because I mailed in a patent application on flat surfaces   
   more than a month before the Air Force hand-carried   
   their patent application to the patent office.   
      
            There is some issue with "first to file" and "first to   
   invent", and I intentionally did not put the details of   
   my invention on paper in December of 1978, I felt   
   what I wrote in May of 1977 in the Space Act of 1958   
   requirement that went to NASA was all that was needed   
   to know to first implement the technology.   
      
            I don't know if the image file of that paper made   
   it on all servers, it was on my server, but I don't suscribe   
   to Giganews anymore, I can't afford it.   
      
            If you have the Ben Rich book I can point out   
   the inconsistencies, I have more faith in the crash   
   dates of the two Have Blue articles than in the other   
   text.   
      
            I can't think of any reason for errors in dates   
   more than 30 years ago other than trying to hide   
   something, but I have no idea what it could be.   
      
            At least Ben Rich didn't claim they got the   
   technology from aliens. :-)
