Your Sunday Morning Jet Noise (sort of)

A pulse-jet powered ice-boat:


And a rocket-sled:

  1. Just what I was going to say, a buzz-sled. I thought pulse jets needed to be moving to ignite but no problem starting this one. Sounds just like the V-1. Maybe pulse never took off because of the annoying bluebottle fly sound. Capt Courage OTOH might be lucky his rocket fizzled. It does take courage to strap a rocket between your legs.

  2. Pulsejets have a lot of problems. They are fuel hogs. Because they mostly depend on ram air for compression, they have to be moving to generate any real power (why the Germans used catapults to launch them). Vibration is bad.

  3. Might not be a Darwin Award, but dentures might be in order ...
