Look at it this way Chris..
How many 1-11's are there compared to Scarebuses or 72/73/74/75/76/777's e t c. It's not the odd 1-11 that's causing a hole in the Ozone ;-) Stage3 seems to work quite well doesn't it

If the skies were full of these, then I'd actually find Heathrow interesting.
Can't beat a bit (well a lot) of noise and smoke!

Yes the Northrup one has standard hushkits - I'll get the photo of the one at Jet sales - its a totally different hush kit - it has what looks like a larger cowl around the aft cowl section - thats why i said it looked like a Valsan conversion
