Assuming you couldn't use any RR proprietary stuff, how about the little
positive displacement pump engines Lawrence-Livermore worked on? You
could build a slick little 2 person or one person/one experiment rack vtvl
for a lot less than even RR is spending for the scientific and
barnstorming market. Or even just sell the engines to homebuilt aircraft
and HPR enthusiasts. Zoom!!!
