In Flight International, 1-7 July, we reported that General Motors and Williams International have teamed to manufacture microturbine generators. Dr Sam Williams, head of the US engine manufacturer, points out that the engine is geared for automotive and industrial applications and that the teaming relationship is limited to those arenas. While Williams says that there are no aerospace applications being considered for the microturbine generator, others believe that such an application may evolve.
