Dremd, thanks for your kind offer of help. I understand most of what I read concerning automobiles. I was an apprentence & journeyman automobile mechanic in the mid 1950's but soon decided to move to a major airline but have never lost my interest in cars. I still turn wrenches on 3 vehicles and belong to several internet automobile groups. I am currently investigating a hybird, front wheel drive with an electirc motor on the differencial - the simpler the better.

An official welcome to the site! I'm glad you returned.

I have often been intrigued by the notion of a passive turbo. I keep thinking of a post somewhere long past, where the vehicle owner devised a zero-psi turbo to reduce pumping losses or somesuch.

So what kind of aircraft do you wrench? There are a few pilots on the forums -- also I'm a frequent flyer and aircraft enthusiast. Now, If it's a CRJ-200, I don't wanna know

Best FE to ya
