They may have moved on tho the turbo. The NA version will suffer a bit compared to the gas version since they can't up the compression enough to take full advantage of the fuel.

Yes Thomas,
I know they plan a turbo Jet-A version, but when I last = e-mailed Francois he said they have the Jet-A normally aspirated = version=20 running. They may have moved on tho the turbo. The NA version will = suffer a=20 bit compared to the gas version since they can't up the = compression=20 enough to take full advantage of the fuel. Turbo this won't be a=20 problem.

Charlie,
Mistral plans on both a NA and turbo version. A turbo = version=20 should have a much higher overall efficiency. They are running a=20 NA now.
