John;

Sorry, It was not my intent to put you on the defensive; I was hoping for
performance data.
And yeah, I overstated the operating cost - I guess I was thinking more
about maintenance.  And, no, the operating costs including maintenance will
never be less than a 3-rotor rotary.

Initial completion cost is $230,000 and operating at 11gph. Less than an
IO-540, Io-550 and much less than a 3 rotor Mazda.
