This WP-imported article really needs work
I thought I did more, on one of the few occasions I imported.
Anyway, the greatest problem is the article, as it exists, is about reaction engines, not jet specifically. Other than some very rare cases, I define jet engines to be air-breathing -- and yes, water pump jets probably are jets with the rationalization that they use an external fluid. Some of this material is clearly rocket, not jet.
So, some of this needs to move to rocket engine. There are a good many aircraft redlinks that deserve at least a minimum entry. Howard C. Berkowitz 21:32, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
I have started on an upgrade of this article
I have begun work on upgrading this article which was imported from Wikipedia a number of years ago. It will take me a number of weeks to whip it into better shape ... so have patience. Milton Beychok 00:00, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
