Kelly,
You just need to fly at Mach 1 so you stay ahead of the sound. ;-)
Can anyone report on the effectiveness of the tangential muffler in actual real world situations? (As I recall Al G. is running a tangential muffler on his Velocity.) I ask because I'm in the process of building one for my Lancair with the hopes that it will work better than the DNA muffler that I'm currently running. I think it will work better at reducing the noise level in the cabin, but at what cost to power? Hopefully, this will save me the cost of a new Zulu ANR headset. Comments appreciated.

Hey gang!
I came across a rare find this weekend.
Any serious rotorhead will certainly appreciate this.
Bluelines from 1973 of the General Motors Wankel Rotary engine.
I just put them up on eBay
