Subject: [FlyRotary] Catalyst in an aircraft application

Good afternoon all, 
 
In this day and age of EPA, pollution control, green earth, etc., I wondered about the viability of an exhaust catalyst in an aircraft application. Are there any reasons not to use a catalytic converter in this capacity? Weight? Exhaust restrictions? Other? 
 
Many thanks and looking forward to your feedback. 
 
Best regards, 
Chris
