Confused? You will be! I'm looking for any techy info (manuals, specs etc) on Plessey IPN starter's, type LTSA 150 Mk 12 to be specific. I believe the Starter originated in a Lightning.

Reasons for wanting to know techy specs? Ask the boyfriend, he's hoping to use it as a power takeoff turbine in conjunction with a TRS 18 Microturbine (nicked from Faulknet Drone) and stick the lot in a Honda CBR 900 Fireblade. :uhoh: :E

All further communications will take place from a small island far away as I will be emigrating after this post, I wish no part in his madness. :rolleyes:

Catt,
From a dim memory about the original IPN emergency APUs on Concorde, my advice would be to suit up in the best hazmat gear you can find, pack up the thing and dump it in deep water.

IPN (Iso-Propyl-NItrate) is, I beleive, extremely unpleasant and potentially deadly at concentrations below which you can detect it.
