LIQPLMBER,

I don't mean to speak for Auric, but I don't think he was trying to imply that the engine was already in use in anything other than home built planes.

I think the reason he and others have brought up Dynacam is to show how pathetic AENG is, not as competition for AENG. If you compare Dynacam with AENG it shows what a loser AENG is.

They both have a potentially revolutionary new engine design, but ...

AENG only has a prototype, Dynacam has working models in consumers hands.
AENG has been 'authorized' by no one, Dynacam has FAA approval in home built aircraft.
AENG has no US patents, If I recall right, Dynacam has several.
AENG has an RV, Dynacam has corporate headquarters in CA.
AENG has never sold a thing, Dynacam has.
AENG went public on the bulletin board before having anything, Dynacam is using the traditional route of financing.

Whether they are competitors or not, the point is look at Dynacam and the troubles they are having developing a following and they are light years ahead of AENG. The lottery is probably a better 'investment' than AENG.

BTW, I did appreciate your attempt at bringing this thread back to a mature, respectable place to discuss the merits (or lack of) of investing in AENG.

Brent

Drano; Mssr. Peabrain: UR Clueless. The way FAA approval works given the US litigation and airplanes specifically, almost all airplanes manufactured in the US are sold in kit form as an experimental kit. This removes the liability form the manufacturer. Piper just recently got back in the business after a dozen plus years. ALL other planes (non-turboprop/jets) have been manufactured offshore. There is no propeller-based airplane manufacturing left in the US. Experimental is the only way these things get sold and several tens of thousand are sold each year. (Go to a newsstand and read up, it will do you good to get out & off this thread)

That aside Drano, Dynacam is offering a real product for sale right now that meets the MOST stringent manufacturing and reliability requirements in the US. If they can do that, they can scale down to any other environment that they deem worthwhile. Perhaps they are going after the most lucrative market that is here now. I don't know, maybe you should call them. BUT, it does not bode well for AENG, which has NO PRODUCT shipping to any industry. Just bs rumors and an unsustainable market cap with a CRIM on the bid.
