I got it the first time. Put that aside and explain why my opinion is wrong....

His description is extensive in the patent, he adds mass to the ab and it is combusted, increasing thrust. The term partial ramjet does not appear...

How is that different from a standard turbojet. Can you explain?

And no, I am not saying he does not understand, only that I do not....

Abernethy's design introduces compressed air into a combustion chamber.
