Default How long before they resurrect the X-33 program?


"MattWriter" wrote in message
...
The linear aerospike engine, IIRC, was completely and successfully
ground-tested


I remembered reading that, while it worked, the power and T/W were less

than
hoped for. Can anyone clarify?


I recall a note in AvWeek placing the Isp at something like 285. Not what I
expected at all from a full cryo engine.
