Doug,
I like the way you think!
If you throw in a PT-6 you should also pressurized the coach! And put it on floats!!
I'm in with you on this one!! What could possibly go wrong?
Brilliant!!! Let's do it.
Scott

Sikorsky put the Pratt in a helicopter (S-58), no reason why we couldn't fit one to a GMC. No radiator needed. One of the few things that sounds better than a GMC driving off - a round motor making power. Especially if you're sitting right behind it.

Scott,
“What could possibly go wrong” indeed…

That reminds me of the most common words said by teenagers before they meet their EMT: “Watch this…”

Still, it’s smaller, lighter, more powerful, and you could fill up at most airports.
If you’re in on the engineering for the floats I say we go for it.
But I need to get all the Lenzi stuff first.
Doug
