As usual you are correct Lightning Mate. Must be a case of youthful overenthousiasm from my side.
Found out meanwhile that duPont Aerospace Company, Inc. has brief info, but that the site's link to the video did not work. The engines are two Pratt & Whitney PW535A as used in the Citation V Encore. More info can be found is on the globalsecurity.org site.

The DP-2 project of duPont Aerospace
The brainchild of Anthony A Dupont it was to be a 30-44 passenger transport with side by side engines that incorporated thrust vectoring.
I found the DP-1 (a scaled down two-seat proof-of-concept) first and surfing over the net I found out what it was.
All yours WK.

You misunderstand LM ... I've seen some of S'land's posts and so I thought something a little different would be appropriate... Don't get me wrong, I love the jets!!! RR

Thanks RR. You just happened to show one that i knew a little about.
I must confess that I do prefer propeller driven aeroplanes, most of the modern jets all look the same. Having said that, some of the experimental craft are interesting.
Here is the next one, a proper aeroplane as she can take off and land on water.
