It was hard to walk pass this turnbine US Coast Guide. When the guy spinned it up for taking off, I felt like standing close to a helicopter.

That model is AWESOME!

Wonder if the turbine exhaust is really at the top? The other turbines I've seen are at the bottom of the frame. It would be interesting to see 'under the hood'. Multiple blades too? Wow..... No flybar? How many gyro's / computers does this have on board?
