Momentum Compression Ramjet Engine

[Don Kuykendall_RIP]

This is a patent abstract of a Momentum Compression Ramjet Engine designed by my father in law, Bruce Neuffer, a propulsion engineer (i.e., rocket scientist). I had my daughter print out a nice large copy of the art I got from the internet of his patent; then I got it framed and put it up in our entry way. He died in 1984 and the engine was one of the first things I remember about him. He fired it off in his garage on the first weekend I went to visit him while my present wife and I were still dating. Flames coming out of the garage and the house shaking was something you don't forget the first time you meet your future father-in-law.

..... the engine was one of the first things I remember about him. He fired it off in his garage on the first weekend I went to visit him while we were still dating........

Don, I've read that line a few times, and I'm thinking you may want to re-word it..... unless you dated him before your wife. Hey, I'm not judging.

Yep, I edited it. Been a long day.
