*** PREVIOUS RESULTS ***
Last week,
AVweb asked if the future of airplane engines could be diesel.
Over 500 AVweb readers seem to think so. At press time 289 of
you have called diesel the "best idea short of affordable turbines,"
and another 279 say "it's good to see alternatives are building
foundations" in the engine manufacturing market. Collectively,
that accounts for 84% of those who have responded to date.
As for our other readers:
-
6% of you were largely indifferent
to the development of diesel engines;
-
7% said diesel would have no
bearing on your flying;
-
and a mere 3% (22 readers) thought
this was "a step in the wrong direction" for engine
manufacturers.
*** THIS WEEK'S QUESTION ***
According to the manufacturers, thousands of Very Light Jets have
already been ordered. This week, we invite you to speculate on what
that means: Does the market really exist for thousands of Very
Light Jets?
