blue flame and turbines are bad as parts melt they say there getting the flames by jolting the throttle its not fuel sprayed in after the hot section to get the flame show

It does happen from surging the throttle above what the engine can spool but instantly cools because rush of cool air is coming behind it. so not so bad as they say.... this is how it can become expensive..

light shows can get expensive.
I have gp nozzles to prove it.
I think its time to drop them in!
I look forward to seeing it together and running!
I have sources that rebuild the gp,s if u ever need them.

yeah I dont plan on doing that , It was the first time i ran them past dark and noticed the flame while setting the N1 minimum to get them to match each other. I was a little surprised with the flame because the EGTs stayed normal except for that one really big flame. It tripped the alarm which was a good I guess and instantly cooled back to normal... Boost is right though its not the best idea. I dont like the idea of tearing these down
The engine room is getting freshened up now and about ready to start rigging. Hopefully soon my friend
