Jerry, can we examine the basic premise for a moment? You've stated that you'll use filtered air next to the dusty Earth and unfiltered ram air at altitude. The contradiction that I'm seeing is that near the dusty Earth is where you want the extra power that would be supplied with the unfiltered air. At altitude you'll be throttling back for cruise power.
How do you view the cost/benefit of the extra complexity of the 'switchable' intake?
