Additionally, the MHD design eliminates many of the wear and friction pieces of the drivetrain with a directly driven propeller by an engine. Problems with current technologies include expense and slow speed compared to a propeller driven by an engine. [8] [9] The extra expense is from the large generator that must be driven by an engine. Such ...

The first production P-59A with a Bell P-63 Kingcobra behind. The 13 service test YP-59As had a more powerful engine than their predecessor, the General Electric J31, but the performance improvement was negligible, with top speed increased by only 5 mph and a reduction in the time they could be used before an overhaul was needed.
The engine was first tested on the Pratt & Whitney Boeing 747SP on July 11, 2008 through mid-August 2008, totaling 12 flights and 43.5 flight hours. [14] It then flew starting October 14, 2008 on an Airbus A340-600 in Toulouse on the number two pylon. [15] Testing of the CSeries bound PW1524G model began in October 2010. [16]

During the 1920s and 1930s a number of approaches were tried. A variety of motorjet, turboprop, pulsejet and rocket powered aircraft were designed. Rocket-engine research was being carried out in Germany and the first aircraft to fly under rocket power was the Lippisch Ente, in 1928. [4] The Ente had previously been flown as a glider.
