[edit] Museum

I recall seeing a tipjet at the aviation museum near the San Mateo airport in California. Perhaps some one could elaberate —Preceding unsigned comment added by 205.166.76.15 (talk) 23:07, 21 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Tip jets

Recommend this article be renamed to "Tip jets" since there is no compound word "tipjets". Hughes made a hot cycle tip jet aircraft. Sud-est, a predecessor to Aerospatiale and Eurocopter, developed a tip jet helicopter that I believe made it into very limited production. --Born2flie (talk) 07:13, 22 November 2007 (UTC)

User:MilborneOne just added the one I was thinking of, the Sud Ouest Djinn! 178 produced, more than Sikorsky's R-4. --Born2flie (talk) 22:48, 6 January 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Requested move

Tipjets → Tip jet — "Tip jet" or "tip-jet" is more accepted, although "tipjet" is also found much less frequently. The company that owns the tipjet.com domain name uses "tip jet" to describe the use of their pulse jet engine design in helicopters. Wikipedia naming conventions also say that the title should be singular whenever possible. —Born2flie (talk) 09:36, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
